OK, so I found these while I was searching for interesting playing cards on Amazon. (Yes, I know Jeff Bezos is really Lex Luthor in a bad disguise.) Palekh Cards

 

The description says 55 cards even though the box says 36?

Everywhere else I have looked says the deck contains 55 cards.

 

So..... What the heck is the 55th card??

Joker of some kind ? Ask Piatnik - the amazon one is theirs.

 

Wait - found another deck - there's an extra "title" card.

That one is on etsy, but they are all over the place, showing 55 cards.

I think this probably the answer as far as the deck I referenced. I went back after I posted this and read through the reviews. One had a picture of the deck which shows 3 Jokers. Not sure what purpose 3 Jokers would serve but I’ve never been sure why there are 2 in a regular poker deck either.
