Naipes Guarany by C. Della Penna S.A.C.I. with ‘Marianne’ tax stamp on the ace of hearts, c.1955-68

Above: Naipes Guarany by C. Della Penna S.A.C.I. with ‘Marianne’ tax stamp on the ace of hearts, c.1955-68. The Joker has slight differences in the position of the lettering compared with the earlier example, but this is due to the colours being differently aligned.

Above: two matching Naipes Guarany decks, with red or blue boxes and wrapper. The company name of C. Della Penna S.A.C.I, the orange 1 Peso tax band on the wrapper and the green "Marianne" tax stamp on the ace of hearts suggests a date of c.1955-68.

Shortly after this the court cards were revised to a new version based on the designs of Goodall, along with a new Joker which also appeared in Naipes Congreso and Naipes Inca (Anglo-American version)

I am the founder of The World of Playing Cards (est. 1996), a website dedicated to the history, artistry and cultural significance of playing cards and tarot. Over the years I have researched various areas of the subject, acquired and traded collections and contributed as a committee member of the IPCS and graphics editor of The Playing-Card journal. Having lived in Chile, England, Wales, and now Spain, these experiences have shaped my work and passion for playing cards. Amongst my achievements is producing a limited-edition replica of a 17th-century English pack using woodblocks and stencils—a labour of love. Today, the World of Playing Cards is a global collaborative project, with my son Adam serving as the technical driving force behind its development. His innovative efforts have helped shape the site into the thriving hub it is today. You are warmly invited to become a contributor and share your enthusiasm.
