$99, delivered, to US addresses. PayPal OK (email me first). Return priv. The Best Antique Gambling Supply/Cheating catalog: H C Evans & Co, Chicago, "Evansmade" 1928 catalog. 160 pages chock-full of info and pictures, in 4 sections.
I collect old gambling catalogs, have close to 100 of them. I consider this the best of the lot (it is my second copy, so for sale here). Though some are older, rarer, somewhat a little better condition, maybe more valuable, I hold this one dearest -- due to all of the varied info on 160 pages. You could call it complete!
CONDITION: It is in quite good condition too: "used," but no markings on inside. As the picture shows, there is some ware at the top of the binding. but the binding is great in general -- all of the pages are firmly attached. Pages in great shape.
The 4 sections are:
¶ section 1: dice drops, small items (good collectibles), counter games, crooked dice (many pages), three pages on ELECTRO MAGNETS for cheating, punch boards, marked cards (many pages), chips, many HOLDOUTS, etc.
¶ section 2: games for AMUSEMENT PARKS n CARNIVALS, dice wheels, chuck a luck, races, ring and ball tosses, etc., chips....
¶ section 3: RIFLE SHOOTING GALLERIES and supplies, guns, moving model belts of ducks and rabbits, etc.
¶ section 4: roulette equipment, table games and layouts (hazard, etc) chips, keno, faro, baccarat, etc.
¶More pictures -- chock full of chip pics and ads throughout. Much pages on marked cards, dice,etc.
