What does 97/31 mean?

It's the model number. I called the company and spoke to a customer service representative, this is what she told me. The Napoletane deck seems to be the most popular of authentic Italian card decks, and therefore has more than one model. There are three Napoletane decks produced by Modiano: Napoletane 97-25 (3 1/2" x 2"), Napoletane 97-31 (3 1/2" x 2"), and Napoletane 97-38 (3 1/4" x 2") (sizes given on the Modiano website). Otherwise, the only significant difference appears to be the back design.

Whats the difference between this set and the red set?

I agree with Marilyn. They are different sizes. I bought them specifically for a card box bought in Italy and they had to fit. The blue and red are close in size, but the purple is bigger. I returned those.

Can I find the 97/38 on amazon? It does not seem to be there

Thank you for your question. I offered some of the 97/38 several years ago and they just didn't sell. I had to give them away. Sorry.

Do instructions in both Italian and English come with cards?

Hello. I purchased the cards but cannot remember that instructions were in the box... the box is very small and so I do not recall instructions... however, you can find instructions all over the internet and this is one site to help you out with Scopa and Briscola!

Typical deck of tarots from Naples

I am italian and am also a professional reader and really enjoy reading regionals cards as they derive from the tarots but with only a reduced number of minor arcana. This is a medium size deck with original images and really useful to have it always with me.
