Interesting photo from a Nevada casino (60's?) hell of a JP holder, is that a "Lord Sega" next to him?

I've just Googled "Diamond Jim's Casino" and then clicked on images.
There's a stack of photos showing a lot of Hi-tops and Segas in the background.

It appears the casino had an in-house photographer who would run up to punters and then take their photo, which they were invited to buy. Reading the blurb it was quite a profitable side line, it also results in a lot of pictures of surprised looking people with slightly out of focus bandits of the time languishing in the background ..... sadly.

Nice find coppinpr.
