Miniature & Small-Format Playing Cards

Miniature and small-format packs were made for patience and travel, for children’s play and as promotional give-aways. Formats include double packs in pocket cases, press-out sheets with a make-up box, and small souvenir or advertising issues. Makers offered gilt edges, cambric finishes and varied box styles; subjects range from costume and theatre to brands and cartoons. See also: Patience.
