Jest Jokers
Peter Wood’s “Jest Jokers” comprising 54 different Joker designs made into a full pack of cards.
A pack of 54 different Joker designs created and produced by British playing card artist Peter Wood, 2000. As Pete explains: “The idea came from seeing joker collectors! I was asked for individual jokers from my decks so thought a deck of jokers could be fun!”
Peter has been designing playing cards since 1994 when his ‘Teddy Bear Transformation’ deck was published by Andrew Jones Art. Since then he has self published several limited editions, and more recently co-published ‘2000PIPS’, a full colour transformation deck limited to 1000 packs.
