Hello people,
I just found a steelbox with some playing card from Fred Harvey and wonder how much they are worth.
It says:

The Great Southwest Souvenir Playing Cards, made for Fred Harvey - Gand Canyon, Ariz. The deck was bourght in a steel box.

The deck is used, but it is still looking very good.

It's hard to impossible to even guess at a value without photos of the cards and packaging.

There were three versions of this deck, you can tell which one by what is on the Ace of Spades.

If the deck is complete (52 + joker + map) and the cards are in nice clean shape with no creases or tears and the gold edges remain intact you should expect $50-$75 on ebay. 

This would include the original cardboard two piece telescopic box.  Your box may add or diminish the value depending on its condition and relevance to the deck.

This is assuming the Indians on horseback on the card backs with a train in the distance.

If it's a Hopi Boy on the other hand, then it is rare and potentially valuable, again depending on condition.
