"THE OLD SCHOOL"
a BELGIAN DECK pre 1850
|
This
was the first of the "Pinsar" decks that we found. It was in
Bruges, Belgium. It came without the pips, so we only have the courts
cards and aces to show. There is no name of the cardmaker on any of
them, but the Jack of Spades shows the name of a "Pinsar" on
the halberd. Filip Cremers of the National Playing Card Museum in
Turnhout, Belgium, told us that it was not a name of a card
manufacturer, but probably the name of the engraver. |
