NY: Simon & Schuster, 1961. Book. Very Good +. Cloth & Boards. 9th Printing.. 714 pp. Almost new, small dark spot on rear board. Gilt Scarne sig on front board still bright. Firm binding, clean text. Numerous b&w photos. An encyclopedic reference giving history, basic rules and pointers on many different forms of gambling. Also warnings about hustlers and cheats in private gambling. This early edition has outdated information on the scope of U.S. gambling -- it is now legal in most states, and state-operatated lotteries have mushroomed, so Scarne's estimate of a $500 billion handle is probably only a fraction of current betting activity. Size: 8vo--9.5 In..
