z Sold Card Cheater's Glasses AND Catalog

RJT#6792 -

Gambler's Cheater Glasses. These glasses are cheating spectacles.

Blue-tinted "spectacles" (as they were called back in the day) afforded the wearer a huge advantage over all other card players at the table because with the use of phosphorescent ink he could mark a deck of cards and with the use of these special glasses he could view the markings while his opponents could not.

In K. C. Card Co. Blue Book , page 36 there is a listing for Luminous Readers. The book states "Luminous Readers originated and introduced by us have been successfully used in all parts of the country. These cards do not bear any visible mark, but when viewed with our Luminous Visor or our Luminous Glasses the work appears as plain as the figure 8 on the back of the card pictured". Also listed on that page are; Luminous Glasses or Visor, Luminous Material, Luminous Ink and Luminous Daub. We are including an ORIGINAL copy of the K. C. CARD CO. BLUE BOOK CATALOG NO. 530, which shows the "Readers" on page 34 along with other related cheating

paraphernalia.

SAVVY SAYIN!
