F. X. Schmid, Munich Patience playing cards, small double pack rococo courts+

Description: F. X. Schmid, Munich Patience double pack, cased with rules A delightful twin pack of small cards from Germany, with attractive art including double ended courts (K D B) depicting stylised portraits in 18th century rococo fashion.In vinyl/plastic case, retaining rules (in German) and original Frankfurt shop price sticker. Logo to back of rules state that Schmid have been making cards for over 100 years. As they commenced in 1860, this suggests pack may date to 1960s. Cards may grade as VG overall. There is very little evidence of use or handling, and no wear or grubbiness. On close inspection there is evidence of slight age toning to white areas on a few faces, more consistently noticeable to backs.Cards remain extremely attractive, in my opinion.Case has a sellotape repair, but is otherwise VG. Each pack has 52 cards and three "jokers" (two different designs). Backs have a red and blue pattern respectively.Size approx 67 x 43mm. Please see all photos which form part of the description. One pack has been photographed in full; it is representative of both.
