Series 2: The Poker Hall of Fame Materials, 1976-1989
Level of Description
Scope and Contents
The Poker Hall of Fame was established in 1979 by the Binions to honor great poker players past and present. The first Hall of Fame inductees included five famous players and two contributors; every year thereafter one player was chosen for induction, many of them World Series regulars. Around 1986, Binion began hosting a championship game called the Poker Hall of Fame Classic in which the best players from diverse categories came together to play in celebration of the game.
The materials consist of press releases on the honorees, newspaper clippings and proceedings of the tournament, a few Hall of Fame certificates, and miscellaneous writings.
