Do the copyright check yourself. Do you know of an online resource
that shows a Piatnik deck with a rough publishing date, so they can be
used for comparison?
You might find a close substitute desks in the following collection.

Hi John,
I'm Jérôme Poisson, the author of the "Salut à Toi" project.
We have spent a couple of hours looking for alternative decks (either
the resolution is too low - that's the case for pysolffc -, either the
deck is too ugly or we are not sure about the copyright), and for proof
that the Piatnik deck is in public domain. We are sure it's a Piatnik
deck (we can compare the 10 and the 20 of trumpt on this page:
https://sites.google.com/site/tacticclub/Home/introduction/l-histoire-du-tarot
or we can see several copies of randoms cards on the web), but we
haven't found any creation date of the deck, so we are not 100 % sure
and can't proof that the deck was indeed made by Ferdinand Piatnik
(which died in 1885), even if there is a high probability that this is
the case. That's pity, this deck is beautiful and the resolution is
quite high.
For the record, the deck is this one:

Thanks for your help
