Product Description

Editorial Review

This deck of playing cards is an authentic reproduction of a deck the Navy Department used in 1943 to teach soldiers and civilians on the home front how to identify friendly and enemy aircraft. Each card features three views in silhouette of different WWII aircraft. During the war, card players studied their cards in more ways than one with this deck as they learned to spot the good guys and bad guys. The deck includes the original admonition from the training division of the Navy not to reveal the content of the cards to any "unauthorized person." These cards are authorized for everyone now, especially if you're a WWII or airplane buff. Whether you're playing poker or bridge, this deck will always give you a winning hand in the airplane-spotter division. --Lee Strucker
