April 27
Well, we're getting near to the
end of this second Lockdown Series. I hope to enjoy an extensive lunch tomorrow
on an outside terrace. The weather will be good, the warmest day of the week
with lots of sun. The restaurant usually has lobster on the menu, so I'm looking
forward to that. And of course an entree, some cheeses selected afterwards and a
good wine to wash it all down with. The whole works! Oh, I've been waiting
for this moment since the restaurants had to close mid October. Anyway, after
that one last deck to finish this series.
For today I chose this satirical German propaganda deck from WWII, obviously
primarily aimed at the British (K's & Q's). Comes with a rare Stalin joker.
Miriam only noted this on the file card and c1941 as date. There was no
reference to this deck on the WOPC site and I couldn't find it on the WWPCM site
either. The only reference I could find on this short notice was in the Cary
books (Germany #382), but there's no mention of a maker/publisher. So this deck
will be filed under unknown in the index, which I'm going to make when this
series will be put on the DXPO site. Unless of course one of you has further
info.
