Description

  The present invention is a card on which a celebrity (talent, idol, etc.), character (comic, animation, etc.), athlete (professional baseball, soccer, sumo, professional wrestling, female professional wrestling, etc.) and a video game are printed. In the so-called trading card market where homes / collectors) purchase at specialty stores (shops), exchange items that are difficult to obtain, trade between collectors, and compete for auction. The present invention relates to a manufacturing method for a trading card having a high distribution quality with a small distribution quantity.

Among the trading cards that have become popular in Japan since the 1990s, there are trading cards whose card vendors have reduced their appearance rate intentionally and systematically. While general trading cards are called “regular cards”, these trading cards are called “insert cards”, “special cards”, and the like. Hereinafter, it is referred to as an “insert card”.
“Insert cards” are those that have been processed differently from regular cards, mainly by pressing gold and silver foils, attaching holograms, and numbering.

  Some "insert cards" have been differentiated by using materials such as Japanese paper, wood and plastic.

  In addition, the “Insert Card” has high added value, including a handwritten signature of a person who has become a motif of a trading card, with a kiss mark, a piece of a costume (such as a uniform or swimsuit) that the person is wearing, There are also trading cards that contain baseball players' bats, grabs, and mitts in thin sections, baseball players stepped on (home, 1-3cm) in bases, and part of movie films. However, there are mainly what are called “memorabilia cards”.

  These trading cards are highly premium and make collectors particularly motivated to collect.

In Patent Documents 1 to 5, a first outer card piece, an intermediate card piece, and a second outer card piece of the same size are bonded together, and an opening is provided in the intermediate card piece. There is disclosed a trading card formed by enclosing a sheet piece in which an article related to a picture displayed on the outer card piece of the same size as the opening is formed into a sheet shape. Both the outer card piece and the intermediate card piece have a window and an opening at the same position. The opening of the intermediate card piece has an opening that is slightly larger than the window of the outer card piece, and the opening of the intermediate card piece. The portion is used as a storage portion for the sheet piece. There is also a disclosure that only one of the windows of the outer card piece is required. The sheet piece is also approximately the same size as the opening of the intermediate card piece.
Usually, the thickness of regular cards distributed in the market is about 0.3 to 0.5 mm, and initially we were trying to keep trading cards with high premierness at this thickness. The demand for the reality of the contents in the card in the market has been actively taken in, and the articles to be confined in the storage section have become various, and naturally the thickness has also become various. Therefore, there is a movement to adjust the thickness of the trading card to the stored article, and the present invention is a method for manufacturing a trading card that solves such problems. The problem is to manufacture a high value-added trading card that contains a thick article and provide it to the market.

The present invention has been made in view of the problem, and the invention according to claim 1 is such that a first outer card piece having a window, an intermediate card piece having an article storage portion, and a second outer card piece are laminated in this order. In the method for manufacturing a trading card in which an article is stored in the article storage section, the first outer card piece and the second outer card piece are connected via a fold line, and one surface thereof has an adhesive surface. preparing a for the outer card sheet, a sheet substantially the same size for the outer card has a fold line substantially at the center, the storage compartment on both sides of the fold lines are formed, an intermediate having an adhesive surface on both sides The step of adhering the card sheet to the bonding surface side of the outer card sheet, and after storing the article in the article storage part of the intermediate card piece, the valley is folded at the fold line of the intermediate card sheet Intermediate card It is a manufacturing method of a trading card characterized in that it is manufactured by a step of bonding pieces together and a step of cutting a bent portion.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, a first outer card piece having a window, an intermediate card piece having an article storage portion, and a second outer card piece having a window are laminated in this order, and the article storage portion has an article. In the method for manufacturing a trading card in which the first outer card piece and the second outer card piece are connected via a fold line, and an outer card sheet having an adhesive surface on one surface thereof is prepared, a sheet substantially the same size for the outer card has a fold line substantially at the center, is the storage compartment on both sides of the fold line forming the intermediate card sheet having an adhesive surface on both sides of the sheet for the outer card The step of adhering to the bonding surface side, and the step of storing the article in the article storage portion of the intermediate card piece, then forming the valley fold at the fold line of the intermediate card sheet, and bonding the opposing intermediate card pieces together And sometimes A method for producing a trading card, characterized in that to produce the step of excising a portion bending.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the intermediate card sheet is used by being folded along a fold line, it is possible to easily store an article to be stored up to twice as thick as the intermediate card piece. In addition, since the bonding surface of the trading card is the first outer card piece and the intermediate card piece, the intermediate card piece and the intermediate card piece, the intermediate card piece and the second outer card piece, the bonding surface of the conventional trading card is Compared to two sides, the strength of the trading card can be easily increased.

  The invention described in claim 2 uses the first and second outer card pieces of the invention described in claim 1, each having a window. In addition to the effect of the first aspect of the invention, since the windows are on the two sides of the outer mount, that is, both sides of the trading card, the sheet pieces accommodated from both sides can be seen. By changing the position and size of the windows on both sides and shifting the position of the storage unit, the stored storage pieces can be viewed in various positions and sizes.
