Two Faro Game Newspaper Photos.

Two Faro Game Newspaper Photos. Reno, 1931. Two newspaper photos of faro games taken March 23, 1931 the first day of the return to legalized gambling. A few edge bumps. The man sitting to the right of the dealer is called the “lookout” and his job is to make sure there is no cheating and to keep track of the bets. This was no easy task.
