The Squeezers playing cards were manufactured by Consolidated Dougherty Card Co Inc., New York, for export to Argentina.<p>

In the older cards, the ace of hearts features a stamp up and untill around 1955. These cards do not have the stamp, so their era is going to be around 1955.<p>

On The reverse side, it shows two bulldogs straining at their leashes in front of their respective houses, with the legends, "Squeezer" and "Trip" on their collars, was originally published in 1877, after a tacit understanding was reached regarding competition between two manufacturers (Andrew Dougherty and The New York Consolidated Card Company).<p>

Also at the bottom of the side with the two bulldogs, is the saying, "There is a tie that binds us to our homes".<p>

There are 52 cards but no JOKERS. The cards themselves are in fair condition. They have been used. Some of the cards are yellow with age but they are not creased, bent, torn or marked on.<p>

The box is also in fair shape. It is trying to split at the top one side and is split about 1.5 on another side.<p>

If you have any questions, please email me.<p>

Shipping in the US will be 4.00<p>
Outside the US will be 8.00<p>

I accept all major credit cards. I happily take personal checks with a 10 day waiting period for it to clear. All money orders and cashiers checks are always welcome.<p>

Thank you for looking.<p>
