Above: cards from a traditional Spanish Cádiz-style pack, manufactured by Müller & Cie (Schaffhausen), c.1950 for export to North Africa. Demand in Spanish-speaking and ex-colonial countries for such cards, for use in casinos, was attractive not only to Spanish manufacturers, but also to foreign makers, who regularly produced cards for the Philippines, North Africa and Latin & South America.
