-I shot my proverbial wad here in Oklahoma (thanks to J and many of you here) and it resulted in only a couple of players with even a passing interest.
I would recommend you partner with a FLGS and discuss a promotion similar to a "Retro Night" wherein you promote tournaments for, say, 8-bit NES games, old card games, etc. Will serve function of spreading the good word and eliminating old card stock from the FLGS if they have such dusty stockpiles. Post flyers at local used game stores as a way to spark sales, E-bay is a friend in those sorts of things.
The FLGS could even advertise on niche sites such as thatguywiththeglasses.com as they have links to retro gaming reviews, are the type of crowd to be into that sort of thing.
Good luck.
