I love playing cards. As a magician, I use them as props for tricks. But as my interest in the history of playing cards grew, I also collect playing cards from all over the world. I love the Spanish-suited decks (oros, copas, bastos and espadas) because they harken back to the old suits used by the Italian and Moorish decks centuries ago. It isn't (as of the writing of this review) stated in the text that this is a 40 card deck. All of my other Spanish decks are 50-card decks so I am pleased to be receiving a 40-card deck. For those who thought they were buying a 48- or 50 card-deck, this could be a disappointment, though. Traditionally, Spanish decks were either 40 cards or 48 cards. Modern 48-card decks now usually also contain 2 jokers for a total of 50. There is a photo mentions that this deck does not contain 8s or 9s as one would -- or at least should -- expect with a 40-card Spanish deck, but as people often do not scroll through the photos, it would be good if the seller updated the item description and title to make this clear. Quality-wise, these are reasonably good cards (and better than some of the Spanish decks I own) and should stand up fairly well to play. They have a good back design. If you want a 40-card Spanish deck, this is a good choice.
