A Cellar of Fine Vintages / Thrift store frankendeck?
« on: June 26, 2019, 10:45:02 PM »
First time poster here, asking THE source for some help.
I found this deck at a local thrift store. Didn't open the box till I got home, since the tuck was taped closed. The ace looks like an example from Lee Asher's site about how to date a deck: https://www.leeasher.com/blog/how-to-date-a-deck-of-playing-cards.php
Possibly from a Jerry's Nuggets deck? But card backs are wrong. I know next to nothing about vintage decks, but for 50 cents who am I to say no. The tuck case alone is cool. And the Joker....where is THAT from? A frankendeck...a deck made of different pieces from decks unrelated. But again, 50 cents!
