My name is Heather, and I Study early playing cards. I was disappointed with what I did (or rather, didn't) find available for early packs, largely due to the scarcity of complete examples. Deciding to resolve this issue myself, I have reproduced seven different styles, concentrating on patterns that require some restoration. I have several more packs in queue.
Please take a gander at my packs, which I offer in small batches.

Welcome, Heather, to the Playing Card Forum.  I took a look at your website, perused a few recent articles.  You have a wealth of information about early cards!  You should consider joining 52 Plus Joker, the club that "powers" this website.  You'd feel right at home, I think - except you won't find as many people in period garb a la SCA!

With your permission, I'd like to include your website in a list that I'm compiling for the next issue of CARD CULTURE, one of the club's two magazines, of which I'm the editor-in-chief.  I'm putting together a collection of places on the Internet that are of use to card collectors - sellers, buyers, crowdfunders, informers, etc.  I'm not entirely sure where your site would go, but it would seem a shame not to include it.
