As an outgrowth from the St. Louis Gambling Kingpins book, JRDI has created a  series of posters that depicts the Ringside Casino at its zenith. The original source of these drawings was the St. Louis Post Dispatch of June 18, 1944.  The paper's artist, George Corney, provided a series of drawings depicting the casino that accompanied a feature story showing gambling on the East Side and at the Ringside in particular.  The level of detail is extraordinary for its time, especially considering he drew them with crayon.

​

JRDI extracted 5 drawings from the paper; modified and enhanced them. They have been resized to 16" by 20", and framed would make a great addition to an entertainment center, game room or behind a bar. You might even see them at your favorite gambling establishment of today.
