Some elements you will see on the cards have to do with Brussels itself. The card backs for 1993, 1998, and 2003 all showcase the Atomium, which I had the pleasure of visiting in 2019; seen here:
The young boy peeing is in reference to Manneken Pis, a bronze fountain sculpture in central Brussels.
5th Anniversary (1993)
Steve Bacon wrote:The deck is numbered and signed by the artist, whose name has been reported as “Le Meunier” and “Freddy Lemeunier.” Whichever name is correct, the artwork is completely delightful. It is my understanding that the deck depicts carnivals at various venues in Belgium. The deck is reviewed in “The Playing Card” at Vol. XXV, No. 4, and the review concludes: “Get one if you can!” I share the reviewer’s enthusiasm.

10th Anniversary (1998)
Barney Townshend, WOPC wrote:Brussels Euro Joker Club's exciting 10th Anniversary deck, with artwork by Yvette Cleuter, was produced in a limited, signed and numbered edition of 400 copies. The beautiful and intricate artwork was done in pencil and includes animals with human characteristics, sometimes endearing.
brusselsjokerclub.be wrote:On the theme of the “Animal kingdom” the artist Yvette Cleuter has carried out very imaginative pictures, using the pen-and-ink drawing technique (red and black tints).
15th Anniversary (2003)
brusselsjokerclub.be wrote:The deck designed by Mr Michel Willems shows caricatural drawings of various craftsmen and craftswomen. A real touch of humor characterizes his work.
20th Anniversary (2008)
