ANSWER: Playing cards are a source of amusement in many parts of the world.

It is estimated that in the United States, a deck of cards will be found in nine out of 10 homes. The history of playing cards goes back so many years that no one is certain when or where they originated. For a long time it was thought that the.Chinese invented playing cards because many years ago the Chinese paper money and their playing cards were identical. We know they were playing cards in China a thousand years ago. Some people think cards originated with the Egyptians; others claim the Arabs or Hindus used them.

Playing cards were introduced into Europe in the 13th Century. It is thought that the Crusaders brought them back from their travels. The early cards had many shapes. They were square, round or oblong. They were hand painted and too expensive for general use.

With the invention of the printing press, playing cards were available to the masses. The French developed the 52-card deck, which was taken over by the British. The British cards had the figures dressed in costumes from the time of Henry VII and Henry VIII. This custom has prevailed in the illustrating of cards. 7.23 Aqnew Prepares To End Vacation SOTOGRANDE, Spain (AP) --Vice President Spiro T.
