Hello,
I found a short but sweet article on the American Card Company that I thought I would share with y'all as the playing cards seem unique.: http://www.swanassoc.com/itsawrap/TO...icanCardCo.pdf
(a better/more complete idea of the typical deck can be seen here: http://www.fortdonelsonrelics.com/im...8.320Cards.htm )
I was wondering if anything else is known about this company (and others like it). Was it indeed the first company to make playing cards in the U.S.? Also was interested to know if anyone has (or might want to) reproduce this particular deck.
