(SN14)
WERELD
(WORLD)
Made since 1925, in chromolithography. Known versions of 33 and 52
cards (59 x 92 mm). Although this deck is found in many sample books,
not one complete deck has been found. So it is hard to say if a joker
has been issued with the 33 cards deck or that an extra card was meant.
After 1935 "Wereld" is not seen in the SN pricelists anymore.
Factory numbers:
601 -round corners, wrapper.
602 -gilded corners, wrapper.
The deck was obviously inspired by the "Cartes Impériales" of
Brepols&Dierckx Zoon from ca. 1875.
The aces are a coloured version of the Dutch-Indies aces, designed by mr.
Kleijn.
the extra card is probably to promote the new trademark logo (used
since 1925)
