Step into the charm of late-19th-century learning with Lustiges Ein-Mal-Eins, a beautifully illustrated German educational game designed to teach multiplication through playful storytelling. Produced around 1890–1900, this set combines delightful chromolithographed scenes with numbered discs, each representing multiplication results hidden within fairy-tale style images.

Players draw and match the round tokens to the corresponding results depicted on the boards – a lively, humorous way to reinforce arithmetic. With its colourful illustrations, ornate borders, and richly detailed scenes, this game is a superb example of turn-of-the-century pedagogical design.

A rare survivor, complete with natural age patina, original box, instructional sheet, and multiple illustrated boards.

🪶 Collector’s Note

Complete (or near-complete) educational games from the late 19th century are extremely hard to find, especially with chromolithographed plates. This example, with its whimsical illustrations and original components, is highly desirable among collectors of antique toys, children’s games, and early school materials. The near-complete token set significantly increases its value.

Issued in 1989 to commemorate the Bicentennial of the French Revolution (1789–1989), this special playing card deck was produced in France by Héron as a single commemorative edition.

While retaining the structure of a traditional French-suited deck, the court cards are entirely reimagined with double-ended, full-color portraits of key figures of the French Revolution, including Louis XVI, Marie-Antoinette, Robespierre, Danton, Madame Roland, and Barbaroux.
The Ace of Clubs prominently features the emblem “La Loi” (The Law), reinforcing the historical and symbolic intent of the deck.

Both historically evocative and visually striking, this deck stands at the crossroads of playing cards, political memory, and graphic heritage, making it a compelling collectible for historians and card enthusiasts alike.

🪶 Collector’s Note
This card originates from the original 1924 Grimaud edition of Georges Muchery’s astrological divination system — one of the earliest structured attempts to merge astrology and cartomancy in early 20th-century France.
Each planet was represented through a powerful symbolic scene; Mars, the planet of action and conflict, is depicted here as a martial archetype expressing drive, assertiveness, and struggle.
Printed on thick textured stock with Grimaud’s distinctive patterned back, original Muchery cards are now extremely scarce, especially as surviving single cards from dismantled or incomplete sets.

Madame Le Normand’s Gipsy Fortune Telling Card Game, Wehman Bros., New York, 1934???, circa 1900.

This deck is a simple red & black version of the Kunst-Comptoir, Berlin deck of 1854 and the same as the b&w Mystic Cards of Fortune.

Several of the outer boxes have a blank space following the words “Published by” which suggests that Wehman Bros of New York may have merely been a distributor for decks printed elsewhere.

The instructions are printed in both English and German. This small deck measures 2-1/8″ x 3″.

Oracle cards made by Modiano from 1950, called “Doctor Marius Divining Cards: Suits of Love.”
The cards are accompanied by a 71-page booklet, entirely in English, describing the deck and how it can be used to tell fortunes.

There are a total of 56 numbered cards, 52 of which are “Lenormand” type in the sense that they have playing card inserts. The playing cards inserted have French suits and English pattern court cards. It is obvious that Modiano intended to market these cards in Great Britain and/or the United States.

The deck has the 56 cards noted above. In addition to the 52 cards with inserts, there are 4 “Consultant” cards. The cards are large, measuring 109mm x 70mm, and, with the accompanying booklet, come in the original box.

The cards and booklet are in excellent condition, “as new” or very nearly so. The box is in no better than good condition as pictured.

This is the last copy that I have from my collection, I really doubt I'll be able to get an other one in the future...

Deck of cards from a very old card game (1950s)
Each card is with a France city name and a young sexy woman.

There are 32 cards in the deck.
The cards are in very good condition with minimal signs of wear but the box is showing signs of wear due to time & storage as pictured.

The artwork was created in 1959 but the tarot was not published till 1966.

It must be one of the earliest attempt to create a tarot using an expressionistic style. It is somewhat reminiscent of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, the German expressionist painter, as it shares the bold outlines set against an abstract background.

Here Joel and Danika Boyer have first created washes of watercolour or more likely gouache on a squared paper and on top of this they have drawn a figure using black paint and a large brush.

This oracle is complete with its 50 arcana.
Size : 75 mm x 125 mm
Explanatory booklet in French.

The backs and corners of the cards are marked with irregularities inherent in the manufacturing process of the period in which this game was produced.
Box is in good condition. Cards look like new!

An extremely rare piece for collectors and connoisseurs.
NOT JUST A TAROT, AN INCREDIBLE PIECE OF ART!

🔹 Very rare 1969 vintage edition of the Ancien Tarot de Marseille by B.P. Grimaud (green box version)
🔹 The green box shows some signs of age and wear from storage (edge rubbing, slight fraying) — see photos
🔹 Cards are in very good condition, with vivid colors and almost no handling wear (like new)
🔹 Includes the original booklet in French
🔹 Highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs of Marseille-style tarot decks
🔹 Traditional Marseille structure with 78 cards and French titles

The Ancien Tarot de Marseille by B.P. Grimaud is one of the most influential decks of the 20th century. In 1930, Paul Marteau reinterpreted the 1760 Tarot de Marseille by Nicolas Conver, giving it vivid colors and slight design changes that set the standard for modern Marseille tarots.

By the late 1960s, Grimaud was still producing this deck in different print runs. The 1969 "Green Box" edition belongs to one of the earliest modern reprints after the Second World War. It reflects the growing interest in tarot during the esoteric revival of the 1960s and 70s, when cartomancy, mysticism, and New Age spirituality were becoming mainstream once again.

Today, the 1969 green-box edition is considered rare and collectible, because later Grimaud decks adopted new packaging designs and different printing styles. Owning this deck means holding a bridge between the classical 18th-century Marseille imagery and the modern tarot revival that spread internationally during the second half of the 20th century.
