Title:
Diamond alphabet playing cards
Abstract:
Playing cards are disclosed having a unique diamond shape that facilitates the handling and display of the cards. A three-letter sequence is imprinted centrally on the front face of each card, the letters forming a natural alphabetic sequence. The second letter in the sequence is also imprinted near the upper and lower corners of each card in mutually inverted orientations so as to be readily visible and recognizable from either end of the card. The cards are divided into four suits such as diamonds, hearts, spades and clubs. Each of the cards has a corresponding suit symbol imprinted near the upper and lower corners thereof again in mutually inverted orientations so as to be recognizable from either end of the card. There are preferably twenty-six cards in each suit with each suit having cards with a second letter in the three-letter sequence corresponding to the letters of the alphabet from "A" to "Z". The cards can be used for playing word games as well as conventional card games.
