Notes
Bohnanza cards are 56x87mm (Standard American / Sleeve Kings SKS-8807). Card count varies by edition — the classic AMIGO/Rio Grande deck is about 154 bean cards, while the anniversary and “Vanilla Bohnanza” reprints run higher (Ryker’s kit is cut for 161), so buy ~160 sleeves to be safe. Sleeving matters more here than in most fillers: Bohnanza is defined by constant hand-passing and trading, and the cards wear fast.
The same sleeves fit these games
Sleeves come in packs of 100 and Bohnanza will not use a whole pack, so it is worth knowing what else the spares cover.

- Flip 7 — 56 × 87 mm
- Great Western Trail (Second Edition) — 56 × 87 mm
- Heat: Pedal to the Metal — 56 × 87 mm
