1966 Whitman Publishing Company Superman Card Game

1966 Whitman Publishing Company Superman Card Game set consists of 43 (2 1/4\" X 3 1/2\") playing cards of (3) Superman and (20) match sets. Original set also included (1) Superman Header Card & (1) Rules Card, for a total of (45).

Superman Card Game Rules:

Shuffle the cards, and deal one at a time until all the cards have been distributed. (Players will not all have the same number of cards.) Each player arranges his hand and lays down any pairs he has been dealt.

Player to dealer\'s left begins by drawing a card from the dealer\'s hand. If he can make a pair he lays them down. Play then moves clock-wise, the player on the left taking a card from the player on his right. The game continues until all cards have been paired. If a player has used all of his cards he waits until his opponents have played all of theirs. The first player to use all of his cards receivesa bonus of five points, but his pairs ca still be captured.

Using the points on each card the scores are ten added up and recorded. The first player to reach a score of 50 or the player with the highest score over 50 is the winner.

A Superman card has no value alone. However, it can be used to (a) cancel out a pair of minus cards, (b) capture an opponent\'s pair, (c) protect one of player\'s own pair. It is placed on top of the pair it has captured, cancelled out, or protected from being captured. Players must wait their turn before using a Superman card. After playing the Superman card they also must draw from the player on their right. Once a Superman card is used it cannot be used again.
