Introduction
Nouvel épisode de la multiplication des carrefours, je vous présente Spanish book covers. Comme son grand frère, french book covers, SBC vous présentera en très grande majorité des ouvrages qui ne font pas encore partie de ma collection, des images de couvertures récupérées sur des sites de vente, de qualité plus ou moins bonne.
Ne parlant pas un mot d'espagnol, je vais faire de mon mieux pour les descriptions mais rien n'est garanti, et puis les images compenseront je l'espère le manque d'informations.
Je tiens à remercier ici l'animateur du site Real Nude Art pour m'avoir introduit à ce pan de la culture populaire que je connaissais très mal.
A présent, chaud devant, des monstres, des femmes court-vêtues, des fusées étranges, des flingues et du surréalisme volontaire ou non, BAM !

"Nursery Rhymes" Playing Cards
Unknown Maker, c. 1880.
History of Playing Cards
The earliest authentic references to playing-cards in Europe date from 1377, but, despite their long history, it is only in recent decades that clues about their origins have begun to be understood. Cards must have been invented in China, where paper was invented. Even today some of the packs used in China have suits of coins and strings of coins - which Mah Jong players know as circles and bamboos (i.e. sticks). Cards entered Europe from the Islamic empire, where cups and swords were added as suit-symbols, as well as (non-figurative) court cards. It was in Europe that these were replaced by representations of courtly human beings: kings and their attendants - knights (on horseback) and foot-servants. To this day, packs of Italian playing-cards do not have queens - nor do packs in Spain, Germany and Switzerland (among others). There is evidence that Islamic cards also entered Spain, but it now seems likely that the modern cards which we call Spanish originated in France, ousting the early Arab-influenced designs. -International Playing-Card Society
