This deck is a reproduction of the Hofämterspiel. The cards are poker sized.
Buy from here for 35 € per deck and what seems to be free worldwide shipping. I just bought one, this one looks fantastic.

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

Re: Hofamterspiel Playing Cards Reproduction
I love most of Roope's finds. This one is no exception. Great stuff going on on the faces but do I interpret the pictures correct that there is no back design at all?

It's a reproduction of a deck from 1400's, of course it doesn't have a back designHarvonsgard wrote: ↑Tue Sep 15, 2020 6:33 am Great stuff going on on the faces but do I interpret the pictures correct that there is no back design at all?
Playing cards started to have back designs in the late 1800s, before that they were blank.Left my heart in SIERRA MADRE

Re: Hofamterspiel Playing Cards Reproduction
For those who still want this deck, Krystian will be releasing an improved version of it soon. Here's his message when I asked about the deck yesterday.
In a matter of days I will be having a new batch of improved cards:) I was working on them to remove even more of the holes and dirts and so on... I'm doing sample printing today and as soon as I will put them for sale I'll send you a link:)
