This is a 32-card deck with some damage to the Jack of Clubs (see picture). I try to avoid buying 32-card decks and ones with torn cards, because I like to entertain the idea that I could conceivably play games with them some day. This particular deck caught my attention because of its subject matter, though.
So, the tax stamp on the Ace of Hearts is very hard to read. The seller dated it at 1916, which is in the right range: the cards were only manufactured 1915-1918 (by Altenburger Spielkarten Fabrik Schneider & Co., or Schneider for short). The face cards all show figures prominent in Germany in this period, which, given that it's in World War 1, means royalty and military. The Clubs, as you can see from the image, are Hindenburg, Auguste Victoria and Kaiser Wilhelm (Auguste Victoria was his wife). The Hearts are Zeppelin, Fürsorge (illustrated by a woman in a nurse's uniform) and Kronprinz Rupprecht; the Diamonds are Bethman Hollwes, Technik u. Wissenschaft (illustrated by a woman holding a book, chemistry equipment and a cog) and Herzog Albrecht; the Spades are Tirpitz, Landwirtschaft (illustrated by a woman holding a sheaf of corn) and Kronprinz Wilhelm.
There's extra wording on the 7 of Diamonds: "Herausgegeben zu Gunsten des Luftfahrerdank Berlin". Google translate seems to think this means "Published in favour of aviation thanks to Berlin", but I don't trust it.
All in all, quite an interesting find.
I'm going to have to read up on Bethman Hollwes and Herzog Albrecht now...
