Description: Step into Gothams Golden Era with this rare lot of 6 vintage Batman & Robin menko cards from 1960s Japan. Each card measures approximately 2 3/8 inches tall by 1 1/8 inches wide, showcasing iconic imagery of the Caped Crusader and his trusty sidekick, Robin. Menko, a popular Japanese card game similar to Pogs, involves hand-cut cards that were thrown and played with. The cards, including these, were hand-cut from larger sheets, thrown, & played with very roughly so surviving cards in good condition are rare. In addition, these cards were normally played with and discarded over time rather than collected in Japan as their collecting culture was not nearly as strong as those within America. For collectors, these cards capture the essence of Batmans global impact and the nostalgic charm of mid-century Japanese pop culture. This lot represents a unique crossover of Western superheroes and Eastern game culturea true gem for any Batcave collection. Please see images for card condition.
