A Truly Unique Deck of Playing Cards

UNIQUE

The design of these cards is special. Each face card is designed with the top and bottom figures interacting with each other. 
Furthermore…

COLLECTIBLE

These cards are meant to be a fantastic addition to your collection of art decks. But they are also crafted for play and cardistry in mind! 

INTRIGUING

Inspect each card and notice things that tell an overarching story. Find easter eggs and clues that may lead you to your own conclusions or…

There isn’t another deck like this.

Not only do these face cards have two figures that interact with each other, note the unique way that each card’s light source illuminates the subjects. Not everyone is an art major so we may not all notice it right away, but each face card is lit from above on one side and from underneath on the other. This special approach helps distinguish each figure in each face card from one another. 

Whether You Collect…

Or play… Or both! This deck is for all of us. 

Limited Edition/Numbered Seals

Get the decks while you can. All editions are limited in number and sealed sequentially.In some instances there are less than 20 of these left. 
Check out the gilded editions of this deck. LPCC did an incredible job capturing the vision.

Linen stock

There is more than just one sense and we should be grateful for that for sure. Especially with tangible art like a deck of cards. This deck will be printed on linen stock because the feel of the cards may be just as important as the look.

Packaging is neat too

These decks are packaged individually in Soft Touch stock and protected by a cellophane sleeve. The embossed elements are foiled with colors that fit the theme of each edition of the deck.

Added stuff beyond the Kickstarter

Since these cards started out as art on a canvas, it only seems fitting that they continue to live on as decorative art elsewhere in the world. You will be able to order prints in a few decorative formats as well as everyday items like mugs and phone cases.

I’ve… never seen someone’s uncompromising pursuit of excellence in storytelling through… something as simple as a set of playing cards. No doubt these are going to be 10/10… I anticipate having a hard time keeping my hand a secret bceause I’ll contanstly be turning them over!
