      Samurai class existed until 1870 but presumably they didnt just vanish at that date https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samurai?wprov=sfti1

      Cowboys in the traditional sense existed in the 19th century, if not not earlier https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowboy?wprov=sfti1

      Revolvers in some form have existed even longer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolver?wprov=sfti1

      Nintendo was formed in 1889 and produced playing cards https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo?wprov=sfti1

      Coca Cola formed in 1886 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola?wprov=sfti1

        I remember in Golden Kamuy (set in the beginning of 1900s) there were several old samurai, at least one of which was proficient at using firearms, too. Though, sadly, they didn’t have any Coca Cola there.

        Looks like coke wasn’t widely sold outside the US until around the time samurai were abolished. Unlikely that any of them drank it, but not impossible. I’d love to read some short stories that have those kinds of seeming anachronisms.

          Definitely not in the East. WW2 is what brought coke global.
