Antique Bistro Card Game Set – Circa 1910 – Belote Deck & Wooden Advertising Tokens

A rare and charming French bistro card game set from around 1910, combining both cards and tokens in a clever red case.

🔹 Deck: Includes a 32-card Belote deck with classic French court cards ("Pallas", etc.). The cards show natural yellowing from age, with one card featuring a cut corner, but remain in good playable condition.
🔹 Tokens: 95 colorful wooden chips, printed with famous aperitif brands of the early 20th century such as Rossi, Martini, Cognac Bisquit. Each chip reflects the convivial atmosphere of French cafés.
🔹 Case: Wooden box covered in red textured material, embossed in gold with “Nécessaire de Jetons” and “Jeu de Cartes.” The box includes:

- A lever system to easily lift the cards,
- Side buttons to unlock the lids,
- A betting slot on the top with side retrieval opening.

Dimensions: 15.5 × 9.5 × 4.5 cm
Condition: Overall very good for its age. Some wear to the box, consistent with use, but the mechanism and contents remain intact and functional.

A delightful collector’s piece, perfect for lovers of antique gaming accessories and the atmosphere of old French cafés.

Out of print edition. An extremely rare piece for collectors and connoisseurs.
