I want to re create my own deck by hand but not sure the process of doing so. I can find lots of pictures of ancient cards but not much info on what materials they are, types of inks, how they were made basically? I'm talking about European cards here, not old Prussian or Chinese cards. I need help here so I appreciate anyone who answers this.
Not going to be terribly helpful here, but you might look at this late medieval set held in the collections of the Cloisters: http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/475513
