Oberlin Heritage Center Souvenir Playing Cards

Thanks to your great response, all of the cards have been sponsored and production is finished!

The cards above are just a small sample of what is contained in a brand new Historic Playing Card Deck from the Oberlin Heritage Center. Each card has a number and suit just like a regular playing card, as well as an image respresenting people or places linked to Oberlin's first 100 years of history. Get yours today!

How do I purchase these historic cards?

Decks can be purchased in the Museum Store of the Oberlin Heritage Center for $10 per deck, or you can use our mail-order form. Proceeds will benefit the Oberlin Heritage Center's Endowment for History Education. Members get a 10% discount, so don't forget about Christmas shopping!

Thanks to the wonderful support of sponsors and Betty Mahjoub, the project coordinator, the Oberlin Heritage Center had over one thousand decks of souvenir historic playing cards produced! We had fifty-five sponsors, one for each of our fifty-two standard playing cards, plus three wild cards. Our sponsors included individuals, businesses, and organizations, all of whom are helping to foster education about Oberlin history.
