Melissa B Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I think they are put out by US Game Systems - or something like that. There are a whole bunch of them. Inventors Scientists Explorers Presidents Authors If you own these - what do you think of the quality? Would they work as everyday playing cards? Do they hold up to repeated shuffling and lots of use? Dh and my older two dds like to play rummy in the evening and could use some new cards. I thought they would make a nice stocking stuffer. I can't decide whether to go educational (the girls would like these) or standard long-lasting Bicycle cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readwithem Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 we have Authors (I remember playing that game 30+ years ago!). I wouldn't say the quality is as good as Bicycle cards. But they make a great conversation piece and are educational - I still remember authors and titles from that game.

Big Buckin' Longhorn Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I think we have the same type of cards, but they have composers on them. These are the ones. They are good quality if you ask me. I carry them with me everywhere I go in my purse because I often find that my son and I do a lot of waiting . . . or even more so I do a lot of waiting for him . . . either way, you never know when you might be up for a game of gin or solitaire. They've held up very well. I've been lugging them around for at least 3 years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa B Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 Thanks for the responses! They have good ratings on Amazon as well - so I think I will go ahead and get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
