This is a double deck set of two distinct decks printed successively in 1862 and 1863. The original two decks were printed lithographically by the American Card Co. of New York. This is a reproduction, by U.S. Games Systems, of authentic Civil War era playing card decks with suits of Eagles, Shields, Stars, and Flags, and full length court figures.
