Nouvelle Kitsch Double Deck

Nouvelle Plastic Coated Playing Cards

Double deck girl with bubbles and boy with dandelions

This is a Nouvelle double deck. The kitsch artwork, as best I can find, is circa the 1950s. I do not know if that is when this particular deck was printed, though.

Both decks are in their original seal and in mint condition. The box has normal wear on the corners.
