wait I never noticed the genovesi and Paris patterns look so similar! I immediately grabbed my Dutch-indexed Belgian-Genoese deck and they're basically just the same as the Genovesi one, except less coloured in. The jack of clovers has a shield in the shape of a guitar pick!

Yes they’re incredibly similar!

As a Turkish guy who moved to Italy 6 months ago, I found your channel and so satisfied with this content. When I was a kid I always loved watching my dad and his friends playing with poker cards and I can say this is the most-common old style card design in Turkey! (face cards are exactly the same but we have numbers printed, just a slight difference). I said old design because the main producer changed and I don’t see this type of cards anymore, but really took me to my childhood memories

Thanks! I did not know this was the Turkish style too. Any good Turkish game I should look into? Enjoy Italy!

Fantastic video! The more elaborate drawings in the Dal Negro deck seem to be based on older designs by either Armanino or Solesio (two Genoese playing card manufacturers), the earliest examples of this pattern are from the late 1800s. Modiano uses the less detailed original French drawings, it seems.

Thank you! It was difficult to be concise while still calling out some of the great aspects of this deck. Like so many of the Italian decks, it has a deep history which is so important to the way cards and their games evolved. Thanks for watching!

I have the Modiano deck. There are less colors in mine and less details

Interesting, I have been noticing that Dal Nergo has finer details in most decks. The Modiano seem to be broader and bolder. Some decks benefit from the details, like the Piacentine and some from the bolder, rougher version, like the Napoletane. Just an opinion though!
