prints derived from vintage japanese Manko cards found at Oedo street market in Tokyo. Menko (めんこ, 面子), also known as menchi, pansu or patchin (めんち、ぱんす、ぱっちん), is a Japanese card game played by two or more players. It is also the name of the type of cards used to play this game. Each player uses Menko cards made from thick paper or cardboard, printed on one or both sides with images from anime, manga, and other works. A player's card is placed on the hardwood or concrete floor and the other player throws down his or her card, trying to flip the other player's card with a gust of wind or by striking his or her card against the other card. If he or she succeeds, he or she takes both cards. The player who takes all the cards, or the one with the most cards at the game's end, wins the game.
