Introducing a precisely restored and digitally hand-recreated reproduction of the next Cotta's almanac deck full of history, and for the fifth time, strongly touched by Schiller's works, continuing after the previous red, yellow, green, and blue one, which was the first published complete transformation playing card deck in the world!

The purple "Aeneid or Pantheon" deck is the fifth in a series of six famous transformation playing card decks we plan to release...

This fifth Cotta's almanac playing cards deck was originally published in 1810.

The court card figures depict various mythological characters, while the number cards include caricatures of famous people like Napoleon, and a variety of comical subjects.

Additionally to the series of Cotta's almanac decks, all influenced by notable authors, this one might also draw on aspects from another Schiller's poetic work - especially the unique translation from Vergil's Aeneid.

Schiller with his own style and effect had translated various parts at various times (his first translations of Aeneid appeared anonymously in the eleventh issue of the Swabian Magazine in 1780 under the title "Der Sturm auf Dem Tyrrhener Meer") and his light and congenial labor mostly continued to occupy him for a year or more after the break-down of his health (resulted in death in the year 1805, when blue Cotta's deck was originally issued for the first time), while he fully completed Book II - "Troy" (spring 1791) and Book IV - "Dido" (winter 1791), according to letters written to his friend Gottfried dated April 10th and October 24th, 1791.

Introducing a precisely restored and digitally hand-recreated reproduction of the next Cotta's almanac violet deck (VI) full of history, for the sixth time, continuing after the previous purple-pink (V), red (IV), yellow (III), green (II), and blue one (I), which was the first published complete transformation playing card deck in the world!

The idea behind the concept of Cotta's transformation decks was to create a series of six decks on an annual basis from 1805-1811. The violet "Knightly Orders" 1811 almanac deck is the sixth in a series of six famous transformation playing card decks we planned to release...This sixth Cotta's almanac playing cards deck was originally published in 1811.

The court card figures depict members of various knightly orders and the characters are in the robes of various orders of real knighthood/damehood or spiritual orders, while the theme of number cards is romantic or even spiritual with a variety of subjects & sixteen of pip cards have scenes that can be considered illustrative of the four seasons.

Additionally to the series of Cotta's almanac decks, all influenced by notable authors, and bottom lined as somehow always mysteriously connected with German poetic genius Johann Christoph Friedrich (von) Schiller, this one might also draw on aspects from another Schiller's cosmopolitan thinker philosophical response work - especially when interfered with surveying public question about his quiet Masonic potential membership, but this has not been proven yet...

After having created several modern original decks of playing cards I have recently been inspired from playing cards from the past. And in this campaign I will present you 2 amazing examples of semi-transformation playing cards from the late 19th century. By supporting this campaign you will be helping bring back a piece of playing card history. All of the art was painstakingly recreated digitally from scratch.

Special thanks to "the World of Playing Cards" for providing a source of information on these and many other historical decks. Also special thanks to Josh Blaker for providing additional reference material.

Open Secrets is a deck based on the theme "hidden in plain sight, but difficult to see". Even the title has a double meaning. It is an invitation to reveal its secrets, or it states the obvious that the secrets are already out in the open.
