BACARO
The game was printed in bookprint and published by SN in
1934.
BACARO is a sort of casino game, that is played with 25 cards,
measuring 60 x 89 mm.. There are 12
red cards, corresponding to the red numbers on the playing field, and 13 black
cards, including the "grey" Zero. Although all numbers are accompanied
by the Dutch word for this number and the "0" is called
"nul" in Dutch, for some reason the more international Zero ('0"
in French and English) was used.
The backdesign has the same design as that of the "Nieuwe Dietsche Kaart" (playing cards deck #23).
