18th Century Playing Cards

By the 18th century, the sale of playing cards in America was so profitable, they were specifically targeted by the Stamp Act. George Washington, known to be an avid card player, played often for pleasure—but never for profit.

This set of historically inspired playing cards is printed on matte textured paper, giving them a vintage look and feel. Suitable for use by both children and adults, they also make charming 18th-century-style ornaments when hung individually in windows or on a Christmas tree.
