Our annual gambling and playing card auction will include items in many categories: uncommon and beautifully bound books on cards, crime, cons, and poker, as well as books on cheating and crooked gambling, chief among them the works of Jonathan H. Green and S.W. Erdnase. A strong selection of vintage playing cards will also be offered, among them advertising decks, and early American cards dating to the 18th century. Other offerings include cheating devices, poker chips, dice, and decorative prints and posters with a card and gambling theme. Catalogs ship approximately three weeks prior to the auction. Previews will be held in our gallery March 26—27, 10—5pm
