Description

"Stacked Decks" showcases Mark's collection of 400 decks of erotic playing cards, dating from 1807 to present day, from countries around the world. When viewed chronologically over two centuries, these decks offer a unique look at society's ever-changing standards of female beauty. Mark Rotenberg has the world's largest private collection of vintage erotica, and he's already published two wildly popular books with Taschen, "Forbidden Erotica" (one of Taschen's Top 25 Bestselling Titles of all time) and "Cheesecake!" (later republished as "1000 Forbidden Pictures").
