Early 20th Century Very Rare Collection of 12 Lithograph French Game Cards

About the Item

Early 20th century Rare collection of 12 Lithograph French Game Cards We are proud to offer a very rare full set of 12 lithograph French game cards. Each individually created with animated automaton moving figures, when the figures arms are physically moved, they reveal numbers underneath which progress the game. Brass rivetted fittings on the movable sections are all present and the lithographs are all in overall good condition with strong colour. These items do come to market from time to time but as single examples mainly, it’s very unusual and rare to obtain a complete set in such good original condition. Would look wonderful framed and mounted as a serious in our opinion. Truly lovely things! Dimensions in inches: H 9” x W 5.5” x D 0.1” Origin: French Period: 1910 Condition: Aged through wear and tear is present across this item, fading of colour on some examples, no missing sections and in overall wonderful condition, some of the edges of the lithograph prints are missing due to age (shown in the photos provided). Its strongly suggested to view all the photos provided as part of this advert before a purchase is made.
