The German Bomb Card (Bombenkarte), designed by Franz Woas, Berlin in 1887 is another wonderful example of trying to unite German and French suits to have an acceptable solution for the international Skat-congresses back in the days. It has gilded edges.
The suits represent the German kingdoms: Acorns: Prussia, Leaves: Bavaria Hearts: Saxony Bells: Württemberg
The Kings are emperors (Friedrich Wilhelm of Brandenburg, Ludwig II., August the Strong, and most likely Eberhard I from Württemberg. The Queens are in costumes typical for the kingdoms (Spreewald, the Highlands, the countryside, and Stuttgart). The Jacks are soldiers (infantry sergeant, ulan corporal, artillery lance-corporal, pioneer).
