Description
This reproduction deck of 18-century 3-1/2" x 2-1/2" cards, printed on matte, heavy-weight, aged card stock, includes 52 four-suited playing cards. The card backs are blank as they were until the 19th century when Thomas DeLa Rue & Co. introduced the printed back to discourage poker players from "marking the cards". Packaged in a resealable poly bag. The history of playing cards dates can be traced back to mid 15th century. However, in that era, importing foreign cards was considered illegal. The reason may be that the cards included pictures of the Kings and Queens in the respective country. Gambling was a popular form of entertainment and a major culture in England in the 18th century. Pharaoh and basset in particular were the most popular card games in England and they continued to be widely played.

18th Century Colonial Playing Cards
The brass items are always great of a quality and do well for us. The historic trading cards are packaged in a way that doesn't reflect the higher price point. The few times we've branched out into other products we've been let down by the quality and value. And to be fair, we were able to return the one item that was damaged - so the customer service has been great. The brass is quality so we'll keep coming back for the brass, but will limit how much we branch out to their other products.
