The listing, UNUSUAL Food ADVERTISING Deck TRADE SHOW Wild West Roundup GEMACO PLAYING CARDS has ended.
Up for auction is a deck of advertising playing cards in excellent (perhaps unused) condition. There were from Sysco's 2010 trade show in the Farm Show Complex (and it doesn't mention the town or place, but I'm thinking Harrisburg, Pennsylvania).
Sysco is the global leader in selling, marketing and distributing food products to restaurants, healthcare and educational facilities, lodging establishments and other customers who prepare meals away from home.
Each card in the deck advertised a different product, and directed you to the booth at the show where you could find out more information on the product. I scanned a few, so you could see some of the products represented.
I looked around the net, and I couldn't find another deck of cards like these! If you collect decks, or trade singles, or just like novel decks to play with, this is a really neat deck! The two cards with stars in the corners are jokers.
And the cards are as slick and slippery as new! The side of the box says, "Printed in the USA on authentic playing card stock", so these are nice quality cards!
Smoke-free! Think Christmas (great gift for your favorite card player)!
