• This is a true piece of history as each card does tell a story and also proves that owning such a magnificent artifact is truly remarkable! Gorgeous card and a spectacular example is one reason to own such a piece that\'s rich in history.

• Back in the 15/18th century many playing cards was used a invoice, Library use, promissory,messages or loan piece that was used as a contract of monetary value or many other reasons.

• Playing cards tell a story. About the technique that they are made with, about the style and taste of their era. But also about the thriftiness in the past, as single cards from incomplete decks were used for just about anything that one can do with paper: they were written or drawn upon, overprinted, but also cut, rolled or pleated and glued or pinned to something. Stationery paper was rare and expensive and playing cards were relatively cheap and had a handy format and a certain firmness.

• The cards were sold in paper wrappers, instead of the boxes that we now have, and therefore got lost easily.

• Already in the 15th century playing cards were given a secondary use for all kinds of goals. A few examples from a wide range: they were used as simple labels, but also for announcements of weddings or funerals, emergency money, IOU \'s; for music notations.

Now you can own one historic card with pure confidence and having the luxury of displaying a historic time piece that\'s authentic.
