1st, Large Sands Logo - No Picture (Green reverse is blank, except for black box. This is one of Las Vegas' earliest machine-read
slot cards. This card was used for a very short time in 1987 and is a major rarity today with
only 2 confirmed examples.)

4th, "Easy Money" Cartoon Slot (Virtually identical to above 3rd issue card, except the cartoon slot machine has a RED tongue.
There are also a couple very, very minor font differences. For example, on the second line of
the reverse, the exclamation mark is over the "w" instead of the "h" like the 3rd issue. This red tongue version appears to be much rarer than the white tongue.)

5th, "Easy Money MGM Sands" (This is the only permanent card from the MGM-Sands Era (1988-89) and is quite rare and desirable. The same basic design with the cartoon slot machine was continued when the Sands
dropped the MGM partnership after less than a year.)

6th, "Easy Money" Lt Brown Cartoon Slot (There are differences in the brown Cartoon Slot known for this card but they are very slight
differences and not as noticeably different as with the next issue. Beginning with this issue, the logo on the bottom right is "Sands Hotel Casino Las Vegas". There is no longer a border around the logo and the registration mark is small.)

7th, "Easy Money" Lt Brown Cartoon Slot (Large registration mark after the bottom right obverse logo. Note: Color variations between these cards are very distinct. A solid argument can also be
made for a Brown Cartoon Slot, but it is close enough to Lt Brown to satisfy most collectors!)
