From 1970s, this is a deck of playing cards made in France by Editions J.C. Dusserre, Maitres-Cartiers Boechat Freres. The cards are a reproduction of a set of cards made in 1493 by master cardmaker Jehan Personne in Lyons France. This set had been reconstituted and published from the original of a moulding sheet conserved in the Public Library of Dijon.

The deck about the French Revolution has hard-drawn indices with blue for the black suits. The aces say "1" instead of "A". It has pictures of characters from the French Revolution on the aces, and on the court cards there are pictures of specific people involved in the revolution with quotes from them in French. There is a paper insert explaining who these people are (in French and English). The jokers are different. One with a picture of a character called a Muscadin, and the other a Merveilleuse. There is one more card which tells the illustrator and printer of the deck. The backs are one-way and the same as the back of the tuck box.

A reproduction of the 1974 slightly risqué cards made by Grimaud, titled“Jeu des Amoureux de Peynet,” featuring the famous designs of Raymond Peynet.
