Mason & Co. shipped 450 chips in four colors to Warner Baxter at 688 Nimes Rd., Bel-Air, CA in 1936. Bel Air is neighborhood in the City of Los Angeles, that borders Beverly Hills.

These chips likely belonged to Warner Baxter (b. 1889 - d. 1951), an Academy Award winning film actor. His acting career peaked in the 1930s, and he is perhaps best known for playing the Cisco Kid in several films in the 1930s.
