Created by Konstantin Matveevich Gribanov, the set had an impressive title:
<div>
<blockquote>
<p><em>Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin (A wonderful and instructive child's game of patience)</em></p>
</blockquote>
</div>
<p><strong>As you can imagine, these were not your ordinary playing cards</strong>. They were elaborately illustrated, beautifully-produced, and laden with pedagogical and ideological value. If you had money to spare and fancied yourself an educated, elite, or prestige-hungry subject of the tsar, you no doubt found a way to get your hands on a set.<br /><br /><strong>We think you should play with these cards.</strong> We think the chances are good that you will learn as much from them as we have. <br /><br /><strong>You don't read Russian?</strong> No problem, we have translated the content. <br /><br /><strong>You don't know where any of these places are?</strong> No problem, we made maps. <br /><br /><strong>You don't know what questions to ask?</strong> No problem, we took care of that, too. </p>
