About the Business

A playing card is a piece of specially prepared heavy paper, thin card, or thin plastic, figured with distinguishing motifs and used as one of a set for playing card games. Playing cards are typically printed as palm-sized for convenient handling and since the mid 20th century have sometimes been printed from plastic. A complete set of playing cards is called a pack or deck, and the set of playing cards held at one time by a player during a game is commonly called their hand. A deck of playing cards may be used for playing a great variety of playing card games, some of which may also incorporate gambling. Because playing cards are both standardized printed and commonly available, they are often adapted for other uses, such as magic tricks, cartomancy, encryption, boardgames, or building a house of cards. The first ever printed playing cards were developed and crafted in Dresden, Germany.
