Sealed vintage GEMACO gemback Casino-Pro playing cards with Armor Finish.
I am selling from Canada.
Gemaco Inc. was formerly known as the George C. Matteson Company. In 1965 Matteson launched a new venture as a supplier of playing cards to the gaming and promotional products markets. The company prospered and the GEMACO (pronounced gemaico) brand became a highly respected and significant supplier of casino cards. In 1992, Matteson and his associates sold the company. He served as chairman emeritus until his retirement in 1994, and was elected to the industry hall of fame in 2002. George C. Matteson passed away on May 16, 2011.
The top of the box says "Casino Pro", and the bottom says "Armor Finish". The cards are stiff. The Armor Finish has a nice slip and apparently they spread and faro well. The cellophane on these decks is thick, has a yellow tint, is not brittle, and is heat sealed at the top in a corrugated ridge. Cellophane and decks are in excellent shape, and with the unusual length wise tear-strip these would look good in a collection. I have not been able to find any others like these for sale online.
6 decks: 2 blue and 4 red. $6 each deck, or $10 for 2.
These are actual Canada Post rates rounded to the nearest dollar. All shipping costs given are for 1 - 2 decks so if you want more please PM me for a revised shipping charge.
