The game appeared around 1780. The name refers to the city of Boston in the United States, an emblematic location of the American Revolutionary War, very present in the European vision of America at that time. It spread throughout major European cities in the 19th century. It was played in salons and cafes and became an integral part of the culture of that era. It is a game very similar to Whist. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" data-hveid=\"CAAIChAA\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003eMeasures 11.75x8.5x2.75\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Grand \u0026 Now","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67654031573246,"sku":null,"price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/7951\/5646\/files\/F2190AD7-C8F2-49A4-B57B-A460EC69EACA.jpg?v=1790985630","url":"https:\/\/www.grandandnow.com\/products\/antique-boston","provider":"Grand \u0026 Now","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
