Over 50 dealers of casino memorabilia will display the iconic artifacts and mementos that bring casino history, and memories, to life. Many are symbols of past gaming grandeur that are gone or becoming rare; souvenirs from when the casinos wanted customers to pocket their branded keepsakes as reminders of a memorable experience. Things like gaming chips of all denominations, gaming tokens, dice, slot cards, playing cards, matchbooks, ashtrays, menus, dinnerware, swizzle sticks, casino photos, post cards, signs, table felt – just about anything a casino could put its name on.
Several gaming celebrities will be on hand for Meet & Greet sessions at the expo. For example, Mark Hall-Patton, the historian made famous on the History Channel’s “Pawn Stars,” will meet the public from noon to 2 p.m. on Saturday, June 13.
In conjunction with the show, every year the CCA hosts four educational seminars related to gaming history which are offered at no charge to the public. Each seminar will be presented in the Joshua Room of the South Point casino.
Registered show attendees can also participate in a live auction of hundreds of casino chips and other casino memorabilia and attend the early bird Banquet the evening before the show begins.
The Casino Chips and Collectibles Show registration and admission is open to the public June 13, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. (admission $10), June 14, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. (admission $5) and June 15, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. (admission is free).
