Gulliver’s Travels

Gulliver's Travels is a set of 36 cards comprising nine families of four cards each telling the story of Gulliver's Travels.

The face of each card carries an illustration of a part of the story, and on the back an abridged account of that part of the story. Below the illustration are printed the titles of the four cards comprising that family, the current card's title being printed in contrasting red ink.

The cards can be used for a "Happy Families" game, though the different wording on the backs of each card do allow for a fair amount of cheating!
