Card, Playing
One boxed set of two decks of playing cards. The cards are stamped on the front with the "Detroit, 1701-1951, 250th Birthday Festival" logo. The backs have black and white images of various Detroit views that have been reproduced from items in the holdings of the Burton Historical Collection, Detroit Institute of Arts, and the Clements Library. The card decks are held in separate gold-colored cardboard trays that have a sliding cover which is made of blue cardboard with gold-colored edges. A white adhesive price tag on the cover underside shows that the card set was sold at "Crowley Milner & Co." for $2.
