I have a deck of older playing cards. What I think is most interesting is the mention of three different card manufacturing companies on the single deck. Mentioned are Russell & Morgan and US Playing Card Co, both from Cincinnati. Also, Consolidated Card Co. from New York. It's the first time I recall seeing the fanned out cards logo, like on the Squeezers ad chip. I guess there was a time when the three companies were merging to form USPC . Which brings me to the question....How old is the deck?
