Anyone ever see IVORY POKER DICE?

Just got back from the Atlantic City antique show. Boy, has eBay changed things -- it just isn't worth going to these general shows anymore. What you see below is my total purchase there.

It was almost worth it though. For the first time I saw real ivory poker dice. The top set in the picture is celluloid "ivory" regular dice. They indicate that the color is ivory, not the material. Many other companies proclaim "ivory dice," but they are referring to the color.. ..... ...... The bottom set (one die is missing) is of real ivory. The dice are heavier than the usual plastic or bone dice, and most important, the tell-tale ivory grain is there (even if not seen too well in the scan). Did any of you ever see real ivory poker dice? (I have often seen regular six-spotted ivory dice. I own some. But not poker dice.)
