Old Huckleberry Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey with a retro vintage feel

USAAdvertisingDistilleryWhisky

A modern 'retro' pack depicting characters from American history on the courts, and with elaborate aces, with advertisement for “The Original Old Huckleberry Genuine Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey” on the reverse. The perception of the vintage whiskey is reinforced by the historical flavour of the artwork and typography, which is also seen in the label.

I have adored playing cards since before I was seven years old, and was brought up on packs of Waddington's No 1. As a child I was fascinated by the pictures of the court cards.

Over the next fifty years I was seduced by the artwork in Piatnik's packs and became a collector of playing cards.

Seeking more information about various unidentified packs I discovered the World of Playing Cards website and became an enthusiastic contributor researching and documenting different packs of cards.

I describe my self as a playing card archaeologist, using detective work to identify and date obscure packs of cards discovered in old houses, flea markets and car boot sales.
