Of especial interest is the excerpt from another letter, written by Colonel The Hon. Sir Lucas Guest and dated 14 October 1966, which is given in Tilley's book Playing Cards (see above). That letter describes how, due to shortages of playing cards caused by the war, H.M. Guest (the Colonel's father) made these packs of cards himself, with a friend helping to carve the woodblocks. Intriguingly the pack illustrated on the Worshipful Company of Makers of Playing Cards website has the jacks printed in yellow, whereas the pack described by Tilley agrees with ours in having the all the courts in purple. Presumably Guest was having to make do with whatever stocks of colour printing inks he had available.
