FACTS: WHY ITS SO RARE The best information about Isle of Man cards is to be found in Mike Goodall's booklet covering 1863-1930. From very early in its history the island kept a measure of independence and never became part of the United Kingdom, retaining its status as an internally self-governing Crown dependency. This meant that playing cards were technically exported to the island. Whether there was a requirement to use an export garter AS is unknown, but by the Old Frizzle period there was a special export ace for the Isle of Man. It was unappropriated, so makers' names do not appear on it. ANTIQUE decks are highly collectible and highly sought after.
