I was flipping through the images of the book when I was struck by the sight of a rather delicious looking slice of chocolate cake in the photo stream!  Now you're making me hungry!  :))

I look forward to reading through the rest of it later.

Nice find and one of my favorite pieces of playing card ephemera - full of good info on USPC'S/Russell/Morgan earliest issues. Now your challenge will be to find the other 4!!

Thanks for sharing. Beautiful back designs that are shown in the booklet.

I'd love to see that Music back (even though it's one way) and Four-Leaf Clover back reprinted again.

We do - I will never forget how delighted we were when we found the first one. It probably was the start of my two favorite areas of card collecting - RM/USPC cards and ephemera!
