Re: Samuel Hart and the Evolution of Playing Cards as We Now Know Them
Very interesting! It's fascinating how popular playing cards have remained to this day. Further, the design still exists pretty much as it was so many years ago.
So many things have changed but a deck of playing cards still persists.
