Wonderful set of cards, titled "Jazz," made by Grimaud c.1989, featuring superb jazz-related designs on the court cards, Aces and Jokers. The court cards depict some of the great players in jazz history, the Aces depict jazz instruments and the Jokers show a Mississippi steamboat of the kind on which New Orleans musicians would have performed in the earliest years of jazz. Louis Armstrong played on such a steamboat in his early years. (text from Steve Bacon of Two For His Heels)
