Newt's Retail Store |
|
Located in Central Ohio, on September 3, 2002 Newt's launches
into the unknown world with our first playing card retail store.
That we know of, we are the first specialty store of our kind.
Offering hundreds (over 1700 at the time of this posting) of
playing cards from around the world along with accessories,
gifts and more. All geared toward the family.
Our mission is two-fold. First of all it is to encourage
the play of cards with family, friends and loved ones.
Playing card games is a great way to slow down and spend some
quality time with other folks. In our fast food, fast
paced world we need to be encouraged to slow down and enjoy the
moment. Catch our breath.
Our second mission is to encourage the hobby of collecting
playing cards. Playing cards are a wonderful, inexpensive
thing to collect and the options are unending. Playing
cards go back in to the history of human beings hundreds of
years and offer an educational experience for all ages.
Even if one does not collect antique playing cards there are
thousands of choices everyday, all around us.
We invite you to browse our online store and if you are in Canal
Winchester, OH (a suburb of Columbus, OH) we invite you to stop
by and experience our store.
Here is a schedule of events for our Grand Opening Celebration. |
