This is the original Joker playing card from the 'Shakespeare' 1895 deck, produced by Bernhard Dondorf in Germany for the London company C. W. Faulkner & Co. This card shows the Joker riding on the back of a donkey. Curiously, the quotation at the bottom 'Laugh and the world laughs with you' is not from Shakespeare, but from (Solitude) by 19th century poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox. After 1902, this deck was published by Dondorf with different Jokers and plain Aces of Spades as 'No 192'. C. W. Faulkner and Co. operated from Golden Lane in London, EC1. From 1882 they worked as lithographers, and also printed in gravure. Their best-quality playing cards were those printed in Germany, some by Dondorf, prior to the First World War. C. W. Faulkner and Co. were best known for their postcards and greetings cards, including Misfitz, which they produced until about 1920. The company closed in 1956.

This is the Cavalier of Hearts / cups (Copas) from a pack of Mexican Spanish playing cards dated 1846. It belongs to a baraja Espanola (Spanish deck of cards with a traditional design). The four suits are oros (gold coins), copas (cups or trophies), espadas (swords) and bastos (clubs or batons). The suit shown here is copas (cups, the equivalent of hearts). A full deck consists of 40 cards because there are no 8s or 9s, and the first court card counts as number 10 (not 11). Packs of this kind, based on the Italian card system, have been around since the 15th century. The pack has a distinctive back design made up of a repeating pattern of crescents and horses' heads. Some of the cards include text in Arabic, but the manufacturer is unknown. Baraja (Spanish decks) are also used like tarot cards in fortune telling / cartomancy / divination.
