[HOFZINSER] FOUR GIMMICKED PLAYING CARDS. Vienna: Tietze, ca. 1850. Four specially-manufactured stencil-colored cards created to the specifications and for the use of J.N. Hofzinser, the famed Viennese parlor conjurer who is widely acknowledged as the creator of many now-standard card effects, gimmicked decks, and special cards. Included are two double-faced cards (7S/JS and JD/AD) and two double-ended cards (QH/KD and QS/JH). With a letter of provenance presenting the cards to Ronald Haines by Joe Wildon in 1962. See Salon de Magie, page 134.
