Description
This deck of playing cards carries the Road Trip print on the back of every card: a cheerful line-up of vintage vehicles set against a soft pale blue. Look closely and you will find yellow cars, a red double-decker bus, a blue coach, a bright red fire engine, a little blue car, a lorry and a rider on a red motorbike, all drawn in a warm retro style. The fronts follow a traditional design, with clear red and black suits and classic court cards, so every game reads easily. These are mini cards, around 5.7cm long and 3.7cm wide, made from card, and they come in a matching tuck box printed with the same vehicles.
Being so small, the deck slips easily into a coat pocket, a handbag or the glovebox, which makes it a natural companion for long car journeys, train rides, camping weekends and rainy afternoons in a holiday cottage. Lay it out on a café table for a quick round of snap, rummy or patience, or keep it in a kitchen drawer for family card games after supper. The vintage vehicle print brings a nostalgic charm to every hand dealt, and the pale blue backs are easy to spot if a stray card slides under a seat.
Each card has neatly rounded corners that sit comfortably in the hand and fan out cleanly during play. As they are made from card, keep the deck dry and away from spilt drinks, and slide it back into its box after each game so the cards stay together and the corners stay crisp. A soft dry cloth will lift any dust from the box. As a present, it is an easy little extra to tuck into a gift bag, a travel kit or a holiday suitcase, ready for the first game on the road.
