Really cool kit that has poker chips (red, black, and off white), a spinning top with dice faces, four dices with royal suits and numbers, 5 six sided dice in a decorative urn with gambler motifs, a small roulette wheel, a dice leather tumbler with 5 six sided dice, a deck of cards, a small glass bottle with "C KILLGORE / NEW YORK", an English fruit knife with ivory scales marked "ROGERS CUTLER TO HIS MAJESTY", a straight razor with "MAGNETIC" stylized on blade and "BINDLEY HARDWARE" with horn handle. White "Silverode" base-metal 59mm open face Elgin pocket watch, serial number 14327547, circa 1910, and a slick little percussion fired wallet gun with cap tin, bullet mold, and turn screw. Compartments are French fitted with a linings in red and green, lid is black leather with gold designs inside lid. Top with brass plaque with stylized "GBC". Simple warded lock on front which appears to have had a plaque at one point, now vacant. CONDITION: Very good throughout with normal wear to pieces from use, but complete and serviceable. Wallet gun is very good with patina throughout a gunmetal coloring but functional, with a good bore. Elgin runs appropriately with heavily scratched crystal and hair line cracks to dial. Box is good with some rubs and marks from age, with some cracks in lid. This is a really neat set that would allow the new owner to gamble to their hearts content and defend themselves should they get caught with five aces. EW
