Description
Gambling, simply stated, is as American as baseball, hot dogs, and apple pie.
Despite the best efforts of our Puritan forbearers, America has, throughout its history, been a country of rebels and gamblers.
The games-pharo, poker, keno, hazard, roulette, and others-have produced objects that are highly collectible and valued by a growing number of aficionados.
This wonderful new book explores the world of gambling collectibles in a way that will inform and amuse both the novice and the established collector.
A myriad of gambling items are illustrated in over 400 full-color photographs.
Included are some that are very rare and some that are not, but all of them are exceedingly attractive.
They have about them an aura of romance and intrigue.
In addition there is substantial text, helping the collector to put the items in a historical context as well as giving very practical information about building a collection.
