Biographical / Historical

The knight of cups is printed with the archaic phrase "ahi va" that many decks of the Cadiz pattern use, so it is safe to infer that thi is a Cadiz deck. There is a stamp on the backs of the cards, but they are printed over with the plaid backs that make it impossible to read.
