Nice collection! Now there's drool all over my keyboard
I have a couple of questions for you:
6th pic down, right hand side. There are two Jedinat cups towards the rear. What's the larger, darker copper cup at the front - is it a Jimmy Bix cup or the jumbo version of the Jedinats?
7th pic down. What's the steel/chrome 3-ring cup behind the black leather Chop cup - is that a Van Dokkum regular sized Chop cup?
Love the julep cups too!

Apologies but I just saw this post after over two years!!! Yes. The larger, darker copper cup at the front is a jumbo Jerdinat chop cup. The steel/chrome 3 ring cup behind the black leather chop cup is Van Dokkum's regular sized chop cup. You really know your cups!

Re: Jedinat Chop cups (Jedinat Jumbo cups in general, actually)
A couple of years ago, I was discussing the Jedinat cups and the Willi Seidl cups with Alex de Cova. Alex told me that Willi Seidl (who made the cups for Jimmy Bix) had designed the Jumbo cups for Alex. There weren't supposed to be any extra sets made. Kurt Freitag told me that he (Kurt) had designed the basic shape for the smaller cups. Willi died.
Willi had made a few Jumbo sets, though, which bothered Alex a lot, because those were to be a one-off. Later, Alex realized that there had never been such an agreement, and besides, Willi needed to recoup his expenses for making the chucks.
After Willi died, there was a huge upsurge in interest in the cups and balls, especially among buskers, and you just couldn't get the Seidl style jumbo cups. So Jedinat commissioned someone else to make them. The shoulder beads on the Jedinat cups are wider than the ones on the Seidl cups.
AFAIK, there are no Seidl chop cups at all. But the Jedinat buttons might work in them. Willi Seidl, Junior is now spinning the Seidl cups. His work is close enough to that of his father that they can't be told apart.

I regretably sold the chop cup over the last three years and have been searching for one to replace it ever since. Any ideas where I might find one?

The Close-Up size is the only one I see available. I believe the larger chop cup has been out of stock for some time now. Also, I haven't had any luck getting them to respond to my emails anymore. Oh well. I guess I'll just have to see if I can find one on the good ol' Magic Cafe.
