Above: cards and box from a Naipes Porteño deck, c.1960, showing the smaller version of the "Palacio del Congreso" logo and a green "Marianne" tax stamp on the four of cups. The legend "Industria Argentina", normally printed at the top of the four of cups, is missing however there is no reason to suppose that they were not manufactured in Argentina.
