Mickey for Kids
Mickey for Kids playing cards from Disney.
Mickey for Kids playing cards from Disney with cute courts, humorous aces and jokers. The pip cards are normal.
Above: Mickey for Kids playing cards from Disney, made by Carta Mundi. Double boxed set, 2 x [52 + 3 jokers] with different backs. A later box contained exactly the same cards as the earlier edition - no doubt a marketing ploy on the part of Carta Mundi to get customers to buy the packs all over again, thinking that it was something new!

I have adored playing cards since before I was seven years old, and was brought up on packs of Waddington's No 1. As a child I was fascinated by the pictures of the court cards.
Over the next fifty years I was seduced by the artwork in Piatnik's packs and became a collector of playing cards.
Seeking more information about various unidentified packs I discovered the World of Playing Cards website and became an enthusiastic contributor researching and documenting different packs of cards.
I describe my self as a playing card archaeologist, using detective work to identify and date obscure packs of cards discovered in old houses, flea markets and car boot sales.
