These old cork and bakelite gammon sets are real hard to find anymore! Ready for your summer matches! All the chips (lovely dark green and butterscotch) are TESTED positive bakelite (409 method - very fast reaction). They are roughly 1-1/8 inches across and all are free from cracks or chips! The board is in vg condition, but does have some staining on the surface. The cork is solid tho, still supple. One of the shaker cups has a small to moderate area w the outside fabric is torn. All original die are included as well. Still has the old Drueke Blue Chip Game Company label on the inside of the case. The latches and handles on the outside are nice, as well as the case itself. Good luck finding one in your searches - I have been looking for years, and this is the ONLY one with cork and bakelite pieces that I have personally come across!
Honest and Reliable shipper , I only charge ACTUAL SHIPPING plus a very nominal .95 handling (.50 of that is for delivery confirmation, required for all my listings). If you win, please be prepared to remit your payment no later than 1 week from date the auction closes .
If you have less than stellar delivery service in your area, I recommend insuring your items - it costs very little to insure with USPS, and I obviously have no control over things once I get them on their way. Thanks for looking.

I accept PAYPAL US BIDDERS ONLY

I COMBINE MULTIPLE PURCHASES (whenever possible) TO SAVE YOU SHIPPING!

Why should I buy from this seller?

Experience : I have been buying and selling on Ebay since 1998! In that time, I have built an outstanding feedback rating, and am pretty easy to buy from! Professionalism : I pack and ship ALL my items professionally with REAL packing materials like popcorn peanuts and bubble wrap. This assures that you get your merchandise in the stated condition. I purchase my peanuts locally, and they are COMPLETELY BIODEGRADIBLE – pure cornstarch peanuts which dissolve when wet (so don't get em wet if you plan to reuse them)! I have never skimped on packing since I began selling, and to date have had only ONE breakage in several THOUSAND shipments! ALL my shipments get a genuine packing slip too – how many times have you received something you purchased on Ebay, and all that came was the item in a box (trust me, I buy stuff on Ebay too, and can't remember the last time I got a packing slip with my merchandise)? What happens if the outside of the box is damaged en route and the postal service doesn't have any way of delivering it because t weren't any instructions inside the package? It just makes sense to include a packing slip, a no-brainer in my opinion. Plus, I always write a note of thanks to EACH of my customers for their business. Remember, the little things in life DO matter! FREEBIES : When I taught elementary school, I learned that tangible incentives are a great motivator (ie, people LOVE getting free stuff!). I get a TON of things at little to no cost, and will typically toss in some nice freebies with your items! Look at my feedback profile and you will notice comments about the goodies I sent typically. Value : When you consider the cost of driving across town to purchase something you could get on Ebay these days, it makes more and more sense to buy online if you can. And it's not just the cost of gas you need to think about – buying online saves time (your time IS valuable remember), traffic congestion on your roadways (not to mention accidents and STRESS), auto emissions, wear and tear on your vehicle and the roadway, etc. I am a PRO when it comes to finding things to sell on Ebay – at prices usually WAY lower than my competition. So, why not sit back and let USPS bring the same thing you would search all over town for directly to your door at probab...
