Are you looking for the type that had the Estes oval trademark logo at the center?

Yes, the one with either that or the Estes address (you know the one burned into our memory from youth "P.O. Box 227, Penrose, Colorado!")

Yes, that's the one I'm talking about. I have sent you an email.

I have a picture of the oldest Estes chute I own. It's been so long I don't remember what they looked like when I was a kid.

Send him a PM to remind him. Joe's a busy guy just like the rest of us. ;)

Yeah, kinda busy right now. I sent Capt'n Jim a PM. Here's an example of a nice old Estes checkerboard in mint condition.
