A card manufacturer at The Carolina notes that about sixty million packs of playing cards were used last year, with America leading while Britain France and Germany follow. He emphasizes players value standard card faces and backs that resist soil, favoring recognizability and durability over novel designs. The piece discusses price ranges and the persistence of traditional backs and face designs among enthusiasts.

It notes that despite artistic back designs, the conventional card face remains unchanged for over fifty years and critiques back enamel and cardboard quality for handling and durability.
