1956 Trump 9-10 Set
Description: This is a fairly hard set to find from the mid 1950's. I've only seen single menko come up for sale every once in a while. Menko are on thick paper stock and most menko that survive today from this set have some signs of game use. These menko came in sheets and kids had to separate the menko themselves. This set features many of the famous rikishi of this era.
