Naipe Español No.407 by F. X. Schmid, c.1980.
No.407 Naipe Español manufactured by Vereinigte Münchener Spielkarten-Fabriken K.G. (F.X. Schmid) in West Germany for the Argentine market, c.1980. The blue/white Argentine flag is visible on the ace of coins. The angel/cupid on the four of coins resembles that of "Naipes Angelito" formerly published by Cia Fabril Financiera S.A although no mention is made to that brand name in this edition. The design of the cards is different from cards formerly printed by Cia Fabril Financiera for F.X. Schmid (Argentina).

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.
