2 Decks of 52 cards each, plus 1 joker and blank card in each. Set contains a booklet of selected patience games. Mardon, Son & Hall of Bristol (the printers and packers) were acquired by the Imperial Tobacco Company and became responsible for the production of most of their cigarette cards. During the early 1930s they also became involved in the manufacture of playing cards - both patience and standard sizes - for the ‘Wills Scheme’ In 1933 WD & HO Wills, one of the founding companies of the Imperial Tobacco Company, devised a special promotion using miniature playing cards as the means by which collectors could exchange completed miniature card packs for other desirable card playing items. Two miniature packs could be exchanged for two packs of “De Luxe” patience cards together with a specially prepared mini-book containing details of a wide variety of patience games. As with all the booklets prepared for this promotion, it is dated 1933.
