The Illustrated French Game, Very Scarce and Lovely Rummy Type Antique French Vocabulary Game folk art floral painting Photos detail the top oneI'd never seen a set of these cards before, produced by R. H Davis & Co, Yarmouth Nova Scotia early 1900s I'm sure, though I can't find another deck out there anywhere. They're really lovely, and make for an excellent way to learn or practice one's French vocab ( animals, vegetables, items of clothing, serving ware, etc.) while playing a rummy type game. Box 3 1 2" x 2 1 4" x 1". Complete deck of 60 cards, in excellent condition.
