Baraja Artistas del Cine Mudo, c.1926

Above: nine cards from a 48-card pack featuring caricatures of four film comedians: Chaplin, Lloyd, Keaton and Turpin. A rhyming couplet describes each scene and a miniature playing-card appears somewhere in the design. On the reverse a blank panel could be overprinted with publicity material. A number of different chocolate makers from Barcelona and Valencia availed themselves of this pack at different times. Published under the name of Fénix of Barcelona.
