I might agree with that - in fact, I'm very inclined to agree with that - but one detail is off.  Casino-used decks are usually named and are unique to that casino while these decks appear to be "Bumblebee" standard issue.

This is precisely what threw me off and why I came to you guys for help. I think that we are all in agreement however, that these decks of cards are simply only a tiny piece of history on how casinos used to run their games. As great as that is, I suppose these decks are worthless  :(

Thanks for all the help of course. I'm not sure what I am going to do with these decks as I'm definitely running out of room. I have decks of cards from over 100 different casinos, most closed. If you guys are seeking anything, I have plenty to sell! ;)

Thanks,
Dan

There were a small amount of chips that came in the collection that are labeled "PGI - A new day in gaming" with the phone number (800) 759-4263. I wonder if that could be related as each of these decks seem to have "PGI" or "PG II" or "PG 2" on them above the signature.

Hey guys,

I came over here to ask you guys about some decks of cards I uncovered as part of my casino chip collection. I picked up a bunch of playing cards along the way, and this deck seemed pretty normal looking until I went to open up and use of the packs today for a card game. Seems that every single pack of these particular Bee Cambric Finish cards that I have are signed on the inside of the cover - something I've never seen before in my life.

The cards used to belong to a gentleman who sold them to me as part of an estate sale, they were his grandfathers. The old man lived in Las Vegas since its beginning, and had a massive collection of just about everything you can think of related to casino.

So, I'm going to post a pick of a couple packs and ask the golden question - How do I find out who signed these decks? Did I just stumble across something that might have incredible value?  ;D

Thanks for any help!

Dan
