Nazi deck of cards

[graeme487]

Picked these up from a local dealer,not a full set but all the picture cards are there and instead of jack and queen its barron and duchess.
all are in very good condition and i can help wondering how many cigaretts were won and lost with this deck.

graeme487,

I think that is a full deck as the Germans play skat with that amount of cards?!

Great find whether all present or not. It would be great to know their story wouldn't

My father spent a while in Germany doing various things.

He bought back a set of cards in this style with standard markings, not swastika, etc.

I remember it becasue I used to call one of the queens a bearded lady and there she is!

Thanks for showing these.

I supopose these are 'Nazi kitsch'.

Regards,
Chris.

Absolutely correct, it is a full Skat deck of 32 cards. It consisted of the 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen, king, and ace in all four suits.

A great item, Graeme! I've never seen its like, and this deck must be early since it's the Model 1927 Eagle and Swastika that's pictured! Thanks for sharing it with us!

That is a great deck. Never seen one like that, I have a regular War time Skat deck. I used to know the rules, but not now.
