Description
These cards were made by Mr. Choji Nakan at Tule Lake Relocation Center to provide his fellow Isseis with recreational activities. He used hard electrical insulation boards to make the cards. They became so popular he made them for people in the other nine relocation centers. There are seventy-five playing cards in this box.
