I all find these card in Holland in serveral shops and supermarkets in my village. One card I got from a violinfriend who was in Ireland. When I went on holiday in 1975 with my family my parents bought an elpee with Irisch folk violinmusic. Gigs and Reels, which developped from Irish immigrants in de U.S. to bluegrass. One of such a reel I can play without notes in front of my nose. That is the only piece I can play without sheetmusic, so I am a bad streetfiddler or would be a bad fiddler in an Irish pub.
