Female Jokers #2: Theatrical (1)

I wasn't sure what I'd find when seeking out female jokers on eBay but I found quite an assortment of artsy ones. Which is my limitation as pin-ups, daft modern representations and photo representations don't cut it for me. 

This card was listed as a Jolly Joker with Shakespeare as an aside but I'm not sure that is applicable even though the costume appears stage worthy. There are two others of this same style that I will post in forthcoming selections.

Atlasnye Russian Playing Card Deck

This Atlasnye (Атласные) (Russian word for "satin") Ace of Diamonds from a Russian playing card deck is based on a design by the Russian painter Adolf Iosifovich Charlemagne (1826-1901) (Адольф Иосифович Шарлемань) from1862.  Although the original deck seemingly had 52 cards this vintage one that I purchased from Ukraine recently only has 36. I will post the entire deck as time permits.
