Title: Playing Cards
Post by: flatcat on August 14, 2010, 15:32:23
Hello :wave:

Can anyone tell me about my playing cards I have, please?

They have just arrived from ebay today (I bought both packs, and they are both the same)

Box front/back:

The boxes are quite battered, but the cards inside are pristine.

The cards are usual playing cards, apart from the King, Queen, Jack and Joker, who are photos of Klickies :love:

I don't know much about them, (but I do have four packs of them, (which I have never played with), but I do know that they are kind of rare. Well at least I know there rare here in the US.

I paid a BIN of £2.99 each plus P+P, but I think the question is more like 'how much did Baden sell his for'? ;D

So does anyone know anything about these playing cards?

Forgot to mention they say Canada on the other side. I am pressuming they are from the USA by the writing on the side, and what Baden has said. They must be quite old as well judjing by the Klickies used.

That is what is puzzling, because the Kings, Queens and Jacks are obviously all much older, so perhaps you are right, and these are quite late, just using photos of classic Klickies :-\

Ahh yes - he has twisty hands as well, when the other King has fixed. Same with the Queens.

A real mish mash :eh?:

Hi

Those are neat looking playing cards you found Damo. Congratulations on finding them and at such a great price.

I do not know anything about them and really find it strange that Playmoibl would make them. Typically a deck of cards is not marketed towards kids aged 3-12 unless they are the really silly ones. Are these the normal regulation/casino sized cards ?

What do the pips/number cards look like? Are they just standard?

I am a fan of specialty playing cards, and though I've never come across these, I'll ask around and see what I can dig up for you.

Yes, they are bog standard, as well as the size

Thanks, that would be great! :)

the only game with cards I used to play was sevens when I was younger. There are no laws that I know of to do with who can play cards and who can't, but I don't think that they like to encourage children to play with cards as they are associated with gambling etc

Which is a puzzle as to why they made these ???

Perhaps someone else can give a better answer :-\

well, I have observed that in some cultures cards are only for gambling, and those who do not believe in it are horrified at the thought of playing cards. But I've never thought of cards that way. I grew up playing cards from the time I was a little kid. I played children's games like go fish, crazy 8s, and old maid. As a teenager, I started playing spade, hearts, free cell, solitaire, slapjack, rummy -- the list goes on and on. And I have never gambled in my life. So I can definitely see making cards for children. I had a lot of special decks made for games like go fish or crazy 8s. I would love to get my hands on some of these playmobil cards!
