Whitman a relatively scarce maker - 1950's- 1960's. Nice keepsake.

That's cool. I would like to find out more if I can. Can't believe I just now noticed the Whitman on the ace facepalm lol. Here's some more pics hopefully I'll find the actual deck and more info.

How about a photo of a few faces - especially the jokers (if you have them) and the Ace of Spades?  That might give us more information.

I'd say with maybe 98% certainty that this wasn't printed by USPC.  It's more like a tarot-sized card, and US Games Systems holds a near-monopoly on printed tarot decks.

I dont have the jokers. They weren't with the deck. I just noticed that the ace of spades says Whitman. That makes me feel stupid. Anyways here's a pic. Maybe now I can refine my search.

I've been trying for a long time to find out what this deck of cards I have is called. Have not been able to find brand or anything about it. I got the deck when I was thirteen. It was a deck that one of my uncles had when they were younger. Hopefully someone knows something. Pic is attached, if any more are required let me know. Size is 2 and a fourth wide and 4 and half in height.

Thanks

Wow - that's an atypical size, for certain.  50% taller than a bridge card, same width.

You go the deck at age thirteen - what year was that?  It could help.  Also, which country are you in?

It would have been around 2001. No telling how long one of my uncles had the deck. Asked them none could remember the deck or who's deck it was. I mean these cards could be 50 plus years old I've had them for 13 years now. Just guessing because the last time any of them lived at home they werev18 years old maybe a few years older before leaving home. My mom and her family are from Maine that's where I got them from when I visited one year.
