This vintage Hoyle bridge‑size Canasta Dog set captures peak 1980s Hoyle charm, pairing classic Canasta functionality with a playful illustrated dog back design in bright pink tones. Each set includes two factory‑sealed bridge‑size decks, plastic‑coated for durability and smooth play, housed in the original black hard case with a printed outer sleeve marked ©1984 Hoyle Products and “Printed in U.S.A. – St. Paul, Minnesota.”
The card backs feature a whimsical long‑haired dog portrait framed in a pink border, making the decks instantly recognizable on the table and especially appealing to dog lovers and collectors of pictorial backs. Inside, you get standard Hoyle faces optimized for Canasta and bridge play—clean indices, familiar courts, and the reliable readability that made Hoyle a staple of home card tables. Together, the sealed decks, intact case, and original retail sleeve make this set a time‑capsule example of Hoyle’s St. Paul era game and gift products, ideal for collectors or anyone wanting a period‑correct Canasta setup with a distinctly 80s personality.
