Folk Cards
Folk Cards designed by Krystyna Gruchalska-Bunsch for Lot Polish Airlines, 1962.
Folk Cards for Lot Polish Airlines designed by Krystyna Gruchalska-Bunsch, 1962. The court card designs refer to Polish folk art and costumes from four regions. The joker is a goat figure seen at the winter solstice festival in Pagan Slavic Heritage. The Polish index letters are: W Walet, D Dama and K Król. I fed Walet to google translator and had it read the word to me in Polish, it sounds a lot like valet so it makes sense in the royal court sense.
