Re: Neat brochure for sure
In Response To: Neat brochure for sure ()

Roy __
¶ no more pages -- it is just a one-sheet flyer (brochure) with printing on both sides.
-- one sheet brochure
is in pretty tough condition:
One piece cracked off,
the whole thing about to
split in half, worn edges, and more.
Open size is about 12 1/4" x 9 3/8"

¶ as it says on the brochure, the chips were made by Harris. There is a Harris catalog page on page 414 of the Antique Gambling Chips book.

¶ that Navarre thing surprised, puzzled me too. You notice the tear in the page of course. The left side shows "NAV". The right side side says "RRE". Does Navrre mean anything? .. .... I assumed that the "A" wore away, and it should be NAVARRE.

¶ a question of my own -- I know that they had color printing from as early as the early 1800's, but when were colored brochures like this one used generally?
