Odd looking Tarot deck

Another wonderful deck to add to my collections. The Tarock Playing cards appear to be vintage and I am trying to date them. The deck arrived from Doscalfees Fine Quality Cufflinks e-store (Oregon).

I will definitely do a layout with these once I figure out the layout. These cards can be used to play a game and are not just for divination. The Major Arcana is double sided with non-Tarot related themes, they certainly remind me of earliest Lenormand deck of 52. Identical to the French Tarock from 1890 made by ASS Germany.

    I found the same deck of cards, from the same manufacturer, in my father’s things when he passed away. He has a typed page, with some sort of instructions which make no sense to me. I have also wondered about these cards.
