* Translucent playing cards. Translucent or 'Biedermeier' Playing Cards with hidden erotic illustrations, [Germany?], circa 1850, a complete deck of 52 stencil coloured lithographed playing cards, each card with hidden erotic image visible when backlit, single-ended pips, somewhat dusty, some light finger-soiling, a few cards singed (2 with minor edge loss/split) probably caused by holding too near a candle when viewing, plain versos, square corners, each card 87 x 56 mm, the cards corner mounted onto 3 display boards with cutouts (in such a way as to enable backlighting of the cards), encapsulated in clear plastic, (not examined out of display boards), each board 54.5 x 40cmQTY: (1)NOTE:Scarce. Believed to be probably of German manufacture, this deck has been printed from somewhat worn plates. Translucent playing cards became popular in mid-19th century France. Mainly created cheaply as novelties, few complete decks have survived. The cards were created from two layers, instead of the usual three, and appear as normal cards when simply viewed. The upper layer is printed with the traditional face design on the recto, and an additional erotic image on the verso, while the lower layer is blank. The lack of a third layer allows enough light to penetrate the card, when strongly backlit, to view the hidden images. On the court cards, the hidden images were designed to align with the court card image (see Denning, also Wowk, p.66).
