Love that Schwyzer Fasnachts-jass deck. Is it from a festival Jase?
The actual costumes those images are based on must be quite freaky to see. I especially like the banner and characters for Goldmauder. :shock:

Interesting how the suit signs are above the indices in these.
Beautiful deck Jase.

I discovered that someone was making the standard Swiss Jass cards in a classic full figure version. So I ordered some, and I can show you some pictures. Very nice, and unusual to be able to find a new edition of such full figure cards.

These cards were drawn by Jens Riedweg in Switzerland, and this is his site:

https://schweizerjass.ch/en/

The cards are a digitally redone version of a classic old pattern by Jakob Peyer. The cards are also printed in Switzerland. The full figure ones that I got don't have a tuck box, and have a smooth finish, the same sort of cardstock that you will see for say typical Altenburger or Piatnik German-suited cards. You can see he also has other Swiss cards for sale on that site, including the more typical modern double-ended ones, and cards with fancy tuck boxes .... And amazingly, the stamps on the envelope match the cards!
