Fronting the SEABLUE Restaurant at the MGM Grand stood a beautiful, circular glass aquarium. Inside I found a business card and a matching barrel match. Ultra COOL !!! 
Here’s another barrel from Moon Nightclub at the Palms:
Next are two complete sets from the now closed Reserve. Tracy Crump might still have the matching waitress uniform:
Whenever we visit the Venetian I try to get matches from Davidoff Cigar. They always seem to have a different one. These all have different printing with the most recent being a 30 strike (bottom right):
We have stopped by the Golden Phoenix in Reno since they opened but all I found there were blank all white matchbooks. Later I found blank all black matchbooks. By that time the casino was looking deserted and the employees were outnumbering the customers. Finally on our last trip there I found it! Wow, an actual matchbook from the Golden Phoenix. 
Sadly they closed shortly thereafter. Did anyone else manage to snag a matchbook from there?
These recent issued matches might one day become as desirable as those rare front-strikers. The best part being they are FREE for the taking!
