The Dondorff playing card decks are rare memorable pieces on its own, The luxury playing card factory founded in Frankfurt am Main by Bernhard Dondorf in 1833 existed for 100 years and was a particularly attractive chapter in playing card history. Dondorf's chromolithographed cards are especially admired amongst collectors owing to the exceptional high standard of design and craftsmanship in their production.
The cards are stamped with a Deutsches Reich 3M Tax stamp on the hearts of aces During WWI there were extra stamps for packs intended for the German troups; these enjoyed tax privileges. The stamp office numbers were used on the later stamps as well. The values were '1M' (packs with up to 24 cards), '2M' (packs with up to 36 cards), and '3M' (packs with more than 36 cards).
