Probably it's useful to our readers, if the place of Franco's productions [ http://naibi.net ] and of MikeH's translations [ http://pratesitranslations.blogspot.com ] are occasionally mentioned.Franco Pratesi wrote, MikeH translated:Well, that's rather good to all of us, that Franco Patesi came back to some activity with the theme playing cards and that we have Michael, who is an useful translator for his texts. Big thanks.My study of the history of card games has proceeded intermittently, with long pauses; at least twice, I thought I had closed research in the sector forever, and then with some surprise I found myself starting again. Lately, this "phenomenon" has occurred to me again, probably thanks to my "discovery" of the progress in the digitization of catalogs. I was used to visiting the ancient collections of numerous libraries and archives in person; now I can have them near me via e-mail.
*****************
For the current state of Franco's new development we have 29 productions ....
