Hallmark playing cards. Yes, they do exist, but it's very hard to find pix online except for backs. My mother had a deck some years ago that one of her friends had given her, and I loved it so much she let me have it. I was using it to learn my rune-mentor friend's Northern method of card reading. Then one day we were using them to actually play cards when we were stuck at a motel overnight in a storm, and I later discovered that one of the court cards was missing. Drat! And every Hallmark store I tried, the clerks looked at me as if I had three heads.
Then, maybe two decades later, I was perusing one of the numerous neighborhood tag sales, came across a pair of co-ordinated decks for a DIME!, and saw that they were the long-sought Hallmark decks!!! BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE!!!
What's so different about them? At first glance, hardly anything. But there are the aces. Not only is the ace of spades large and ornamented, so are they all! And they look to have been drawn freehand, not machine-perfect. Look a little more closely at the courts, and you'll see that even though they seem to be the same as all the usual suspects, they actually have some variations, which to me are attractive. Then there are the jokers: two of them, and different, not just in color but in design and pose.
I love those decks.
