A great many learned historical writers
during the last five centuries have sought
10 determine the source of cards and
card games. The date of invention, not
only of cards themselves but of card
games seems to differ according to the
nationality of the writer and the subject
is apparently much confused. However,
the consensus of opinion seems TO fix the
date of the first known pack of hfty-two
cards at about l42l At this period the
game Of Pique appeared In France during
the reign OF the crazy King, Charles VI
Of France 0S6S-ll22J, and fifty-two cards
were first used in playing this game.
The pack from which this game was
modelled came from Italy and was called
Trappoia. Cards CTrappola) had then been
