Subject: RE: BS: Things people keep........
When my grandfather died, his 'special' drawer was tended to by my aunt. He had 53 or 57 packs of playing cards--can't remember which, many shaved or marked. There were also some cards marked in Braille so he could play with a blind friend of his every other Friday. As I recall, they broke even over the years playing cribbage. (I mention that because I only ever saw my grandfather cheat once when he was winning some people's money back from a sharp.)
