The Queen of Hearts Holds All the Cards

            In her palace of red, white and black, the Queen of Hearts holds court, and also holds all the cards.

The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 8th of September is "even and odd", where the words even and odd, an even or odd amount of pips on a dice or domino, and even and odd amount of objects, or even and odd numbers are allowed.  This left me with lots of options and I took a few different photos I could have used for the theme.  However, in the end I decided to select the odd and even numbers and showcase the Queen of Hearts: a limited edition Playmobil, who does not really have a place in my faerie tale Playmobil series of photographs I have been releasing over time.  The Queen of Hearts comes from the Playmobil set 6841, series 10.  You can see she holds all the cards including a seven of clubs, an eight of spades and an ace of hearts amongst other cards.  These I think sufficiently cover the odd and even numbers required for the theme.  I hope you like my choice, and that it makes you smile!

Playmobil is a line of toys produced by the Brandstätter Group, headquartered in Zirndorf, Germany.  Production began in 1974.  Playmobil began to be sold worldwide in 1975, and by 2009, approximately 2.2 billion Playmobil figures had been sold.  The signature Playmobil toy is a 7.5 cm tall human figure with a particular smiling face.  A wide range of accessories, buildings and vehicles, as well as many sorts of animals, are also part of the Playmobil line.  Playmobil toys are produced in themed series of sets as well as individual special figures and playsets.  New products and product lines developed by a 50-strong development team are introduced frequently, and older sets are discontinued.  Promotional and one-off products are sometimes produced in very limited quantities. These practices have helped give rise to a sizeable community of collectors.
