I am on vacation and I found a deck of cards called bicycle Lotus Backs. I have never heard of them but I wanted to know if any of you have. They look really old and I cant find much info on the internet. Thanks in advance.

Do they look anything like the ones on this page?

If they are, I believe that they are really rare and are before the 1950s.
Hope I am not mistaken.

They look really similar and the box has the exact same print it just say lotus back instead of oak leaf and the back design is slightly different.
the lotus backs are an old vintage deck printed a long time ago, is there a tax stamp where the seal would normally be?
The tax stamp has been torn off but the cards are in the same color box unlike the ones in that guys photo S.G. posted.
I know they are used but I did find this on Ebay for anyone interested http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Poker-Chips-w-Deck-case-Set-Playing-Cards-/220809898076?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item33694ba85c#ht_594wt_1139 Enjoy!
