So he did not limit his collection to picture cards produced from 1850 on, he also collected a great many similar materials in the attempt to understand their origins and their various facets.", "type": "unstyled", "depth": 0, "inlineStyleRanges": [ { "offset": 0, "length": 7, "style": "BOLD" }, { "offset": 63, "length": 41, "style": "BOLD" } ], "entityRanges": [], "data": {} }, { "key": "emuci", "text": "This extraordinary and highly original collection, which had already been made into a company museum in 1986, was donated to the municipality of Modena, the world capital of the modern trading card and therefore its natural home, in 1992; on 15 December 2006, the Museo della Figurina was opened to the public in the prestigious venue of Palazzo Santa Margherita.\u00a0If we are to examine the wealth and variety of the materials that it houses, the name \u201cMuseo della Figurina\u201d may almost seem reductive.
