16: Børnekort

Adolph Holst. Børnespillekort No.1
The producer behind this deck has hitherto been unknown, – and it has “always” been a riddle, why 16-08 was named A.H.2, in many varieties, – because: Where was No.1?? Now solved. This deck was bought as new in Copenhagen in 1938, so that is as close as can be to a production year.
