Collectible Playing Cards - Frédérique Crestin-Billet

There are very few families who do not own at least one deck of cards. Hearts, clubs, spades, and diamonds are a familiar sight to all of us. In fact, the use of playing cards has a rich history that dates back to the late 1300s. Certain aspects of their design have remained the same since medieval times, while others have undergone fundamental changes. Showcasing over 400 different designs, Collectible Playing Cards takes the reader on a fascinating journey that spans the globe. This bool will appeal not only to serious collectors, but also to anyone who enjoys a good game of rummy or crazy 8s.
