Naipes DOMADOR by Cía General Fabril FinancieraNaipes Domador was one of Cía Fabril Financiera's leading brands of Spanish-suited playing cards, alongside Naipes Angelito, Payador and Victoria. The design didn't change at all over the years, although the values of the tax band and the tax stamp changed according the law in force at the time. The logo on the four of cups shows a cowboy breaking in a bucking horse beneath the legend "Domador". |
Above: cards from standard edition of Naipes Domador with a plain criss-cross back design, dating from c.1960. The green 'Marianne' tax stamp [c.1955-68] on the four of cups, along with the 50 Centavos brown tax band [Decreto 18,235: in force 1944-1964] around the box, implies a date somewhere between c.1955-1964.

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.
