18th Century English Playing Cards
$6.00A reproduction of a deck by Bamford of London, circa 1750. The initials "HC" on the King of Hearts suggest the printing blocks were likely made by an earlier printer whose business was taken over by Bamford. Although cards were printed in England as early as the 15th century, the oldest surviving English decks date from the 1600s. The classic style of this deck makes it a good representative of cards used in both Britain and America from the early 1700s to the late 1800s. Although Jokers were not included with cards until the 1800s, Jokers have been added to this deck for later, more modern games which may require them.

16th Century German Playing Cards
$6.00Dating to 1588, this 52-card deck is based on one of the most significant works of Jost Amman, one of the more prolific artists of the German Renaissance. German printers experimented with a wide range of suit symbols, and this deck uses books, jars, printers' ink pads and cups. As was common in German cards, there are no jacks nor queens, but rather the German equivalents of an "unter" ("under" with the suit sign at the bottom of the card) and an "ober" ("over" with the suit sign at the top of the card) and kings on horseback. It also features a female figure for the 10 of each suit.
A beautiful deck of playing cards, replica from a 16th-century German set. Printed in full color with historical accuracy in mind. Learn More -
