Gambling Collectibles also offers chapters on gambling books, including chapters on vintage makers, cheating and con games, and even novelties (prints, posters, photographs, postcards, etc.).

Gambling Collectibles was assembled for collectors; gambling enthusiasts; gamblers; historians; casino employees (executives, surveillance operators, and dealers); new-game developers; consultants; magicians; researchers; and non-collectors.  In short, Gambling Collectibles - A Pictorial Journey, offers something for everyone!
