eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result QUEEN OF THE YUKON 6sh Date Sold 7/1/1999Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Six-sheet (Learn More) Jack London's Queen of the Yukon, the 1940 Phil Rosen Monogram Alaska riverboat gambling casino adventure cowboy western (based on the Jack London story) starring Charles Bickford, Irene Rich, June Carlson, Dave O'Brien, and L. Stanford Jolley (in an uncredited role as a miner). Note that some of the posters for this movie show a gambling casino where "faro" is played. This gambling game is completely forgotten today, but in the 1800s, it was THE most popular game, because a smart player could get exactly even odds on all their bets, something not true in any other gambling game. In the 1970s, the Stardust casino in Las Vegas attempted to "bring back" faro, but there was little interest, except among quite elderly gamblers, and since it didn't make the casino any money, it was quickly abandoned!
