State Historical Society of Wisconsin
Souvenir deck from the State Historical Society of Wisconsin containing photographs from the collections of The State Historical Society and The State Conservation Department on each card. The photographs are rectangular monochrome b/w images of Wisconsin with descriptive captions beneath each photo. The Joker carries an outline map of the State of Wisconsin with the State Seal superimposed and with the legend ‘Founded 1846’ beneath. The deck could possibly be a centenary issue. The reverse has a colour photo of the Dells of the Wisconsin River showing the Cambrian sandstone rock formations.
