This picture comes from the "Alice Midwand Wonderland" published in 1907 and was drawn by illustrator Walker.In the picture, Alice saw the Red Heart Queen in the Rose Garden for the first time, and the queen invited Alice to play hammer balls together.

In the novel, all kings, queens, soldiers, and guards are all play cards.The predecessor of the poker card may be the French Tarot, with a total of 52, which represents 52 weeks a year; the four colors represent the year and four seasons, 13 weeks of each color, and each color.The number of points is equal to 91, which represents 91 days of each season.

The four colors have different meanings: the spades represent olive leaves and symbolize peace; plum blossoms represent the clover, symbolizing luck; the block represents diamonds, symbolizing wealth; red heart represents the heart and symbolizes love and wisdom.Some people think that the four color patterns are related to the medieval class.

After being introduced to the United States, the play card was incorporated into the two clown cards in the German poker card.Therefore, there are currently 54 mainstream poker cards.
