New IPCS Leaflet
The IPCS offers up-to-date information with a quarterly magazine which is distributed to all members around the world, and has reviews of new issues, new publications, the latest investigations, the best research articles on the history of playing cards and card games… the IPCS opens a real window on the world. You will learn about unfamiliar packs, different types of playing cards from different countries, tarot and other card games, as well as correspondence from other members. You will be kept informed of other playing card societies worldwide, including dealers and auctions.
The IPCS organises a convention every year in a pleasant town, with talks, exhibition and trading sessions, so permitting members to meet other enthusiasts, to socialise, make new friends and to exchange. It also helps young researchers and playing-card designers…
