This is probably the most seen standard joker by Piatnik.
It took me a
few minutes to see how Miriam had organized 27 of them, but it turned out to be quite
easy.
First there are the pale-faced ones, like the 3 above and then there are the
pale-faced-with-lipstick ones.
Next are the barely coloured faces.
and gradually their faces get more pink.
and then there are the suntanned ones.
So far for the official Piatnik jokers, but there are similar ones.
I call them
the pointy nose version and somehow I think that they were an earlier version.
But I'm not the joker expert, so they could just as well be made by another
manufacturer.
I'm not sure
about the following ones.
Although the designs are exact copies, I doubt if they were produced by Piatnik.
These last two are a Polish calendar card and a poor copy, probably from some Asian country.
