Vintage Rikidozan Japanese Menko Card Pro Wrestling Showa Sumo Azumafuji Japan Description This listing is for one authentic vintage Japanese menko card featuring Rikidozan and Azumafuji.
Menko are traditional Japanese paper game cards that were widely played by children during the Showa era. Because these cards were originally produced for play rather than long-term preservation, surviving examples have become collectible items among enthusiasts of vintage Japanese toys, sports memorabilia, and paper ephemera. The artwork depicts Rikidozan, the legendary pioneer of professional wrestling in Japan, alongside the sumo grand champion Azumafuji. Both figures were major sports icons of mid-20th century Japan, and items depicting them are appreciated by collectors of wrestling history, sumo memorabilia, and vintage Japanese sports culture. This is an original vintage item produced in Japan and not a reproduction, reprint, or modern copy.
A desirable collectible for professional wrestling fans, sumo collectors, and enthusiasts of vintage Japanese menko and Showa era paper toys. The item shown in the photos is the exact card you will receive. Condition
Pre-owned vintage item with visible age-related wear.
The card shows surface wear, edge wear, light discoloration, and a small paper chip along the edge consistent with vintage menko cards that were originally used for play.
