Le Pendu THANK YOU for all those links, info and suggestions! I have yet to acquire Kaplan's Encyclopedias...another addition to the wishlist!
I find the various decks portrayal of Le Fol/Mat's Unda-pants vs bare bottomed to be another headscratcher, too. (In this case, my personal Victorian sensibilites take precedence over historical accuracy: I don't mind his naughty bits being out of view!)
jmd - is the book you're refering to "A Wicked Pack of Cards?"
