From 1890 to c. 1947, to my knowledge only one pack of artist's playing-cards has been produced in Hannover, around 1934 by some unknown artist.
After WWII, the following companies/makers in Hannover produced playing-cards (mostly just one edition), or they sold playing-cards printed by another maker, but using their own logo and possibly design.
