An auction is to be held on eBay next month in which a number of Victorian casino antiques will be sold to members of the public.

The auctions will be held on behalf of Victorian Casino Antiques and will be a fascinating look into the history of one the world’s oldest pastimes.

It will be held in Las Vegas and broadcast live on the internet so interested fans can watch the items go under the hammer.

Antique casino items in the sale will date back from as early as the 1840s, with vintage cigar boxes dated from 1849.

There will also be 1950s slot machines and even an antique baby carriage.

The Victorian Casino Antiques company was formed over 30 years ago and thus far three auctions have been scheduled, with the first on March 11th, the second on July 8th and the third planned for October 14th.
