CUBA

Cuba has not been a major producer of playing cards, partly for economic reasons and also because cards have been banned since the revolution of 1959.

During the colonial years and afterwards, Spanish-suited packs were imported from Spain, notably Málaga and Cádiz.

Several Cuba Souvenir packs are known, either manufactured by USPCC, or else anonymously in Cuba.
