Vintage Wooden Playing Card or Place Card Holders, or Trumps Markers deep pottery bowl and I'd think more likelyYou know I love old playing cards, and these would be a fun way to display a few, or to use as place card holders, especially for a games night and then they could also be used to mark the trump in bridge. They appear to be handmade perfectly imperfect, and really sweet. Each measures approx 2 1 2" t x 1 3 4" w x 1 8" thick. In great vintage condition.
