These cute poem cards can be found in the oriental museum at Durham University. It's essentially a line matching game, which doesn't quite do it for me, but it's probably worth a look see if you're in the vicinity of the museum.



From the blurb:

Lacquered Wood
19th century CE
Japan
16cm x 10cm x 4.5cm

This box contains poem cards. Half the cards show an imaginary portrait of a poet and the first line of a poem. The rest of the poem is found on the remaining cards. The object of the game is to match the pairs of cards together by remembering the poems and the poets.
