Just returning from a short hiatus ... or rather a working period away from play ...
I am so far behind on my mail openings, scanning and posting of used cards that it will take some short entries to get back into the swing. and before I can properly discuss the history, integrity and breath of important cards - I have to start with some simplicity.
Submitted for your approval - or not - are gaming cards designated CCG or Custom Card Games. Being interested in many things STAR WARS I was aware that there were Japanese versions of the sets. I always though these looked really cool. It is a known fact that Star Wars creator George Lucas is a big fan of Japanese cinema so it is fitting that the Asian nation pays such homage to the series.
What I did not know - or ever expect - is to showcase POKEMON cards in all my collection. But while I was away I obtained a box of cards at a garage sale which included a binder full of these kiddie collectibles. There were a handful of them in Japanese ...
some in German ...
... some in Italian ...
and others in Spanish.

some in German ...... some in Italian ... and others in Spanish.I've always appreciated the global impact of trading cards - especially as I enjoy exchanging cards with people from all parts of the world. This gives special opportunity for collectors of soccer, hockey and basketball - which are becoming badges of international greetings.

That's pretty neat. I never knew the Decipher Star Wars cards were sold in Japan.
I have binders full of those Star Wars cards. I think I might have a Japanese version floating around somewhere. I got pretty close to completing some of the sets before the cards all dried up on eBay after the last movie came out.
