TRICK-TAKING GAME [ALUETTE]Biblio.com

Complete deck of Aluette cards

1890ref. 20151France 1890. 48 playing cards on thick stock. 86 x 56 mm. Wood engraved designed with stencil color versos alike with wood engraved grid fields. Excellent condition. A fine deck of cards for the game of Aluette a trick-taking game commonly played in France. Made up of four suits—batons coins swords and cups—the deck is dealt to players clockwise and played in “tricks”; the highest card wins and the player who threw it take the rest of the pile. Although it is a French game Aluette uses Spanish suits indicating that the game may be older than the creation of French playing cards. It is also called “La Vache” in some circles because one of the cups cards features a cow. B.P. Grimaud was the primary producer of Aluette decks but not that offered here. However the basic imagery on the cards closely follows Grimaud’s of the mid-late 19th century. unknown

Housed in original slipcover made of pebbled green paper over boards with chromolithographed label affixed to the front open at top and bottom. Light wear to edges of slipcover otherwise in excellent condition. A charming and unusual magic card game based on mathematical principles that purports to reveal anyone’s name and age. Using the pink cards for women and yellow for men the questioner holds onto the instruction and key cards and gives the player the rest of them which have lists of names and numbers and the letters A E I O U W and Y at the top. The player tells the questioner the letters corresponding to which cards have their name on them and using the key the questioner adds their corresponding numbers to get the player’s name provided it is one of the 127 names listed. The game is played the same way to determine players’ ages. The game actually works! unknown
