Scarce vintage gambling catalog from the infamous K. C. Card Company. Circa 1940's -1950's. No date is printed in the catalog, but the company moved to the Chicago location in 1940 and was raided by the FBI in 1961. This falls somewhere between those years. The K. C. Card Co. was a supplier of gambling merchandise to casinos and gambling operations. They supplied both legitimate and not so legitimate materials. You could order loaded dice in many, many varieties, marked cards, mechanisms to hide cards, and so much more. Some of the items were useful for magicians, but mainly the catalog was aimed at helping gambling establishments to beat the odds and cheat the customers. CONDITION: Very good vintage condition. Top right corner of the front cover is bent and worn.
Item Dimensions: 8 1/4" x 5 1/4".
