Old Maid Cards c.1960s

My grandma used to have a deck of cards exactly like this. I don’t remember much about her or her house or this game, but in my memory we would play this in her living room, surrounded by overstuffed floral furniture. I could never hold all of my cards, so instead she would let me spread my cards out on the the gaudy glass coffee table (Did it have gold trim? I can’t remember. Probably.) and lay underneath to play. It must have been terribly annoying, waiting for me to crawl under the table for each turn. I thought it was the greatest thing ever.

I was just talking about this a couple days ago! I was SO jealous of my older sister when she got her first phone and I realized that she could play games on it.
