Original Steamboat brand playing cards from the United States Playing Card Co. Russell & Morgan Co. of Cincinnati introduced their “Steamboat” brand in 1883. Owing to the romantic appeal of gambling on the Mississippi River, many manufacturers added “Steamboats” to their range, differentiated by a number, such as 999. “Steamboats” tended to be the cheaper end of the range.
