A. Ball & Bro. Gaffed Faro Dealing Box. Chicago, ca. 1900. Two card side-squeeze German silver faro dealing box. Gaff is activated as a right-side squeeze that increases the width of the slit through which the cards slide. The box can be locked up to a straight box (if anyone becomes suspicious and wants to examine it) by pushing the right side ring plate forward. The gaff is not functional.
