    There are 300+ assorted matchbooks in this pile. They include Las Vegas (Strip & Downtown), Reno, Atlantic casinos & restaurants along with many others from assorted airlines, restaurants & other establishments. I think some of the casinos in Vegas no longer exist.

    The box will weigh 6 pounds when packed & I will ship as economically as possible for whoever wants them.

    If more than one person wants them I will draw names next Sunday evening around 7:00 PM EST.

    In the early ‘90s the guy who had the largest matchbook collection in the world and I were friends. We were on the TV show Personal FX together. :)

    That was a striking good comment! :)
    Good comebacks are an important staple of life.
    I trust you folded over before your hot spark of an idea.

    Not that I'm in, but are you actually allowed to send those through the mail?

    Bakers, when I mailed a bunch of matchbooks, with matches, my local postmaster told me they were okay to mail if closed inside metal tins.

    Whether he was correct or not, I mailed mine in metal cookie tins with tight lids.

    Note that if the matches do not have any imprints, are shaped, are figures, or anything other than a standard blank match, it is perfectly fine to carefully remove the staple(s), dispose of the blank matches and then unfold the cover flat.
    There are album pages just for match covers.
