This 1950's vintage sheet of Japanese menko cards is a light weight cardboard. There are 39 cards on the sheet; most of them military images. We have an ambulance, officers, tanks, soldiers doing things with flame throwers and machine guns and garishly colored red and yellow striped fighter planes in the sky.
There are also cards with a rocket shooting into space, flying saucers, lots of weapons of distruction and a soldier releasing doves....I was thinking they might be doves of peace but they are more likely carrier pidgeons. Some of the soldiers and generals look like real people (Stalin perhaps).
There is a dark blue printed design on the backs of these cards.
One card has Japanese characters, maybe instructions for the game. The colors are beautiful and the artwork is attractive. This oversize sheet of vintage Japanese menko cards is uncut and unused. The paper does show the effects of age....some wear and softness on the corners (the upper right shows the most damage) and some foxing along the outer edges.some misregistration in the printing is also possible. Overall condition is good.
The sheet is 10.5 inches (26.6 cm) wide and 15 inches (38 cm) tall.
