Description
Antique deck of playing cards, I have Found that this deck is in the British Museum (they are missing 4 Cards, Mine are Complete, and I have the Original Box as Well) they Date Them too The Second Quarter of the 18th Century 1725-1749) - I have included a pictures at the end of the listing that shows the description from the British museum as published in a book I Found Online. They are square cornered, no numbers and plain backs indicating pre-1860. There is a Tax Stamp on the Ace of Spades. The Tax Stamp Unfortunately is Illegible and therefor no help in determining the Exact date of Manufacture. Each card has a different song printed on it. I cannot determine the manufacturer. All cards are present and accounted for as shown in the pictures and it has its original box intact. This is a Rare Find, a Complete Deck of this Age with such an interesting subject Matter. Card condition varies but overall this deck is in great shape for its age.
