A reproduction of an earlier deck dating from the early- to mid-1800s. Each of the 52 cards has a hidden erotic image revealed when they are held up to a bright light. An accompanying informational booklet written by Erwin Kohlmann, the then-current owner of the original deck, explains the history of erotic translucent cards in Europe and discusses possible sources and influences for the specific images in the deck.

The oldest surviving deck of cards in Europe.

The original deck was published in 1676 of which only one Pack complete with the two Preliminary Cards is thought to exist, forms a small Atlas of England and Wales. As such, it is the first Atlas to indicate roads. The King depicted on the cards is Charles II and the Queen, his wife, Catherine of Braganza. The main part of the cards was printed from engraved copper plates, with the suit marks being applied later by stencil. The cards were clearly designed to give instruction to the young, rather than for serious play.
