Found this at a thrift store for 30 cents. A complete deck of these cards. Obviously very old. I think they might be vintage.

It doesn't have a code on the Ace of Spades that helps you identify the date of manufacture.

What do you guys think?

IMO... and not to bust your bubble...

Your cards are not that "old"... just very well played with.

Old cards didn't have numbers or letters printed on them.

Thank you for pointing that out. You didn't bust my bubble. At least I found something!

These cards might be from the 1940s - 50s. :icon_scratch:
Which is still pretty darn old.

I'd say those are probably somewhere 1965-1975-ish
