As many, if not most of you know, I collect stuff from Aruba casinos. Not just chips, but a number of other things as well. I have been trying many things to try to increase my Aruba collection. I just bought some decks of cards from one of those leads. I figured I would at least get a deck from the defunct Masquerade casino, for which there are no playing cards on the Caribbean chip guide. I figured I would also get a complete deck of Royal Cabana cards to match my single (thanks, Janice O'Neal). I also assumed I would get some additional colors of decks I already had. Well, I ended up with a different deck from the Royal Cabana and the Allegro, as well as a new style deck from the Stellaris:

Scans have already been sent to Charles for the guide. Another recent tip led me to this great old deck (which I believe I posted when I got it):

Von, got anything to trade for it? You get first shot.
