The HEMP Culture Playing Cards

These magnificent playing cards stem from at least 30 years of research... a lavish showcase of superb photography, artwork and personal revelations... which is both educational and entertaining.

"Freedom is a natural, basic, element that provides us with a foundation for motivating ourselves... to explore our souls and the beautiful relationships we can have with each other." [Laurence Cherniak, 1998]

There is an underlying element of subtle humour in these cleverly designed playing cards... gently questioning the issue of legality. The cards are collages of various images, juxtopposed and merged together, with vibrant and colourful patterns. The suit signs and pips are gold-edged. Overall, a superb piece of work. The more you look the more you'll see, and in the "History & Memoirs" there's also some fun stuff...

Rating: 9/10
