"Dondorf Cards Cover"

History buffs who play cards will love this special play card cover and will recognise the luxury playing cards founded in Frankfurt am Main by Bernhard Dondorf in 1833. His factory existed for 100 years and was a particularly attractive chapter in playing card history. Dondorf's chromolithographed cards are especially admired amongst collectors owing to the exceptional high standard of design and craftsmanship in their production. Many fine beards and moustaches can be seen in Dondorf's playing cards, along with fancy (pseudo-late mediaeval, baroque or rococo) period costumes flamboyant characters, sometimes solemn, sometimes cheerful!
