contents: Johannes Hilarides, bookseller in Dokkum, had a shop sign with a Bible on the front and a hand of playing cards on the back. When the people of Dokkum walked past the shop in the direction of the church, they saw the Bible. When they returned, they saw the playing cards. When this was objected to, Hilarides defended himself by saying that he sold both Bibles and playing cards. In order to calm things down he hung a cloth over the hand of cards which, however, blew aside in the slightest wind. In the illustration on the title page of this pamphlet from 1695 about the affair, the `cloth' can be opened and closed by way of a strip of paper.
