Contraband Playing Cards by Theory11
Designed in the United Kingdom by Joe White, Contraband Playing Cards were inspired by secret societies, conspiracy theories, and everything unknown.
The tuck case, and the cards within, are all made in the USA on FSC-certified, ECF paper. Secret imagery is hidden within the design: the lines of the inner flap construct (literally!) a face of mystery.
Every single playing card within the Contraband deck was designed from scratch - even the Aces, Jokers, and court cards display attention to detail never before achieved.
Over a year in the making - and every minute of it is visible in the final design.

This is a book I created (and bound) during a study of color theory. Each design is made of cut paper with a vellum covering featuring the theory it illustrates.
You gotta love the building. It provokes a reaction of "What was that?! and a dangerously abrupt slamming-on of brakes.
There ought to be more buildings shaped like the businesses they contain. You're invited to make your own stripclub joke at your own convenience.
