SET 4
This set shows a ‘new to me’ mark on the Rook, with it having a four-pointed star on top. I hope this is might be familiar to you…
It is a large set; but of what maker?
Thank you again.
That set is the Cavalier Set. Arrco Playing Card Company once owned the Cavalier Set.

I have a Druke 36 set in a different box. It is made of a light colored plywood ( almost white). The wood has 5 laminations . The sliding cover is masonite. There are no marks or labels on the outside of the box. there is a foil Drueke model 36 label on the bottom ( inside ) of the box. each queen weighs 32 grams. I have added 2 extra queens to this set. They weigh 55 grams. If not for the Drueke label, I would have thought that this set was not in a Drueke box., because it looks so cheap compared to the other Drueke boxes that I have seen.
