Hi all,

I recently acquired a part deck of cards that I'm having real trouble to identify and date.

I can't make out the name at the bottom on the back. Florence?? and there is nothing on the AS to suggest a maker.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The cards are from a transformation pack produced in Melbourne, Australia for Florence and Bland Holt. They were actors. There is an entry for this pack in Albert Field "Transformation playing cards", 1987, pp. 159-161

Thanks Peter, appreciate the info.
