Buyer's premium:

A very interesting deck of anti-religious playing cards. Each suit represents a different religion: the Russian Orthodox church (Clubs), Roman Catholicism (Hearts), Confucianism (Spades), and Judaism (Diamonds). The Joker depicts an allegorical figure of a capitalist who rules, like puppets, the heads of various religions. On the back of the cards, there is an image of horned heads radiating from the Star of David. Very good collectible preservation.

Condition: Very good
