Description
The Comic Playing Cards of Fortune. New York: E. Gardinier, 1877. 52 + J + OB + Booklet. Fortunes and illustrations appear on the face of each card (except the courts, which have fortunes only, the publisher having chosen not to “distort” the images, which “hence do not have to be learned anew.”) Hochman FT8. This deck includes the rare instructional booklet not recorded in Hochman, outlining how to use the deck to read the future. The booklet calls for the player to find their “Representative Card,” determined by marital status and skin complexion. The cards are then shuffled and dealt out in rows, face up, and ensuing steps allow one to divine likely future success or failure in love, wealth, and happiness.
