- THE INTERNATIONAL PATTERN & ITS ANOMALIES -
-45-
The following deck came from the collection of a Dutch collector. He had qualified it as Italian and we haven't found proof of another origin yet. Even better, in 2016 we receive the final information about this deck from our fellow-collector Gustavo Orlando-Zon, who wrote us, that the deck was printed by Masenghini and published in 1982. The deck was designed by O. Colombo.
The suit colors are repeated in the center design of the courts. The King of Hearts is not suicidal and has an unusual attribute, just like the King of Clubs. The other courts have the more familiar ones.
| There was no box with the deck, so we cannot give any info about it, except that it consists of 52 cards and 5 jokers, each holding one letter of the word JOKER. |
