Who sold the Eiffel tower? Twice

The history of playing cards is closely connected with con artsits, gamblers and scammers. Playing cards were often used to make money fast.
The idea of creating these cards is to combine the system of marking cards on the back side and portraits of famous con artists, gamblers and scammers of the 16th-20th centuries on the court cards.
