Des cartes révolutionnaires

[montagnarde1793]

My revolutionary cards came today! I got two decks: one was a reproduction of one originally created in 1793, and the other was made for the bicentennial. These are the Saint-Just and Robespierre cards for the latter. Saint-Just, because of his mission to Alsace, is representing the suit of the Republican army (des piques), while Robespierre represents the suit of the civilian Republic (des carreaux). Both in in place of the Roi card (hence the "R").

Oh, I'm sure I could give it another go.

Well do be sure to set your priorities... or something.
