Varkert Casino for sale

I received this player's card from a coworker of mine. He knew of my interest in collecting $1 casino chips and saw that I have slot cards and room keys available for trade on my web site, so he gave me this player's card.

The Varkert Casino is located in Budapest, Hungary. Their web site is http://www.varkert.com.

There's a story to go along with this item. My coworker was friends with Nate Neuman. He went to Budapest with Nate many years ago and, for some reason, ended up with Nate's player's card as a memento of the trip together. If you have not heard of Nate Neuman he is one of the Nazi Hunters. His cover was that of a jeweler specializing in amber. Nate was passionate about his work and took every buy personally, which was always followed by a state of depression. He finally got closure before his death.

As you can see Nate's signature is on the back of the card. I've included images of the front and back of the card.

I’ll be putting this item up for bid on ebay soon but thought I’d show it on this board to see if there was any interest before it went to ebay. If you are interested in the card please e-mail me. Thanks.
