- THE INTERNATIONAL PATTERN & ITS ANOMALIES -

-28-

 

Canada is the next album in our collection. It's not a vast collection, but maybe that's because there were not that many non standard decks made there. The fact that the US is around the corner, will probably have had something to do with that.
The only qualifying deck that we could find depicts females on all courts and both jokers. At first glance it may look like the familiar pattern, but -besides the weird indices- the double imaged design shows two different designs on each end. On the R's and N's there's definitely a male and female side, on the G's that is not as obvious.

The "Unisex" deck was made in Canada by the Unisex Playing cards Co. The deck was designed by Benincasa Designs Inc. It consists of 52 cards, 2 jokers and 2 extra cards.
