Motorcycle Playing Cards Appraisal

Harley-Davidson Playing Cards Deck

This item is a standard-sized deck of playing cards housed within its original tuck box. The box itself is rectangular, predominantly white and black, with a striking glossy finish on its printed surfaces. The front of the box features a detailed, monochromatic photographic image of the front end of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, focusing on the prominent headlight, forks, and engine fins. The headlight is depicted with a warm, golden glow, adding depth to the image. To the left side of the front face, a vertical stripe in a deep reddish-purple hue contains the 'HARLEY-DAVIDSON' logo in white, stylized capital letters. Below this, the words 'PLAYING CARDS' and 'CARTES A JOUER' (French for playing cards) are printed in smaller, black block letters, indicating a bilingual or international product. The overall condition of the box appears to be good with minimal visible wear, suggesting it is either new, lightly used, or well-preserved. There are no obvious creases, tears, or significant scuffs visible on the exterior. The 'H-D' logo is also visible near the top of the vertical stripe. This item is likely a promotional or souvenir product, characteristic of licensed merchandise. The styling suggests it is from a relatively modern era, perhaps late 20th or early 21st century. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced playing card decks, focusing on clear graphics and functional packaging.
