I did some painting for someone. Part of my compensation was her late husband's travel case from the 30's and 40's. It was full of matchbooks from California, Chicago, New York, Florida and hotels and businesses in between.

Included are books from S,F.Aquatic Park Casino, Jack Dempsey's restaurant(with still-wrapped sugar cube),several Chicago delis and a number of then-popular nightclubs and lounges. Also, sugar cubes from 1939 Expo. Many other books in various conditions.
