Today, I'm going to talk about 'favorite play in my childhood.'

One of my favorite plays is 'card games.' I used to play cards with my friends. I played 'Seven settings', 'Domino,' 'Concentration', 'Baba-nuki ',known as 'Old maid', and 'Daihugo'.

Do you know 'Daihugo'? It's a Japanese version of 'Career Poker.' 
The rules are almost the same.

Playing cards, which are similar to those of today, first appeared in European countries around 14th century. Since then, the design, shape, the number of cards, and names have been changed and varied from country to country. It is said the origin of design was found in England in 17th Century.

They say the spade is a variation of sword, it symbolizes "Princely and strength", the heart is a holy grail, symbolizing "Preist, and love" the diamond is Money or development, symbolizing "Merchant", the clover is Bar, symbolizing "farmer or peace."
We can feel its history deep and mystery from the above.  
 
I'll show you several interesting episodes below. 
In ancient times in Europe, playing cards were used to do gambling. Therefore, they were prohibited, or restricted, and then even taxed for a set of playing cards by the Government and Church.  


The reason of being elaborated of spade would have been affected by anti-counterfeiting seal not only because of collecting national tax but being spade which is always on the surface of every set of cards. 

Moreover, it is said the joker would be modeled ’fool' of the tarot. Playing cards with such joker seems to be commonly played only in Japan.

Researching the things above, playing cards seems to be varied depending on the times and the country. 



Thank you for joining as always.


See you next time.
