Representing Iranian culture and history and intended for a Persian market, these playing cards were designed by V. Romanowski de Boncza. The deck was commissioned by the Royal Iranian Government Playing Card Monopoly (Ministry of Finance) at the time and printed by De la Rue & Co., Ltd, c.1937.

They look so nice!!

It would be world-wide news if they rip off an Esfahani with such ease.this must be a conspiracy on par with JFK Assassination & October Surprise.:)

The cards being sold on that site are obviously not the original vintage De la Rue cards. I looked for the originals quite a bit online but haven't been able to find any yet. Looks like those guys are basically copying the original designs and making new cards. Anyway Zob Ahan jan if you get them it would be great if you could update the thread so we know how the quality is.

I suspect that Behdad owns that website.and they say that Canadians aren't crafty. :)

But hey , you lost your money to a Barca fan.that should ease the pain.
