Hot Sauce Playing Cards
Each card shows an image of a bottle of hot Chilli Sauce (spelt 'chile' on the cards), a map of where the product is made, a heat gauge plus amusing notes and information about the particular sauce.

 Hot Sauce Playing Cards… a series of four different collector's decks for the gourmet.
"I developed and designed the cards personally with the assistance of some good
California Chardonnay and/or Cabernet Sauvignon throughout the process. It was (and
remains) my intention to use the playing cards as a fun way to get information about hot
sauces to the public, and as an effective advertising medium for the various makers." Frank Mulligan, designer and marketing director

I am the founder of The World of Playing Cards (est. 1996), a website dedicated to the history, artistry and cultural significance of playing cards and tarot. Over the years I have researched various areas of the subject, acquired and traded collections and contributed as a committee member of the IPCS and graphics editor of The Playing-Card journal. Having lived in Chile, England, Wales, and now Spain, these experiences have shaped my work and passion for playing cards. Amongst my achievements is producing a limited-edition replica of a 17th-century English pack using woodblocks and stencils—a labour of love. Today, the World of Playing Cards is a global collaborative project, with my son Adam serving as the technical driving force behind its development. His innovative efforts have helped shape the site into the thriving hub it is today. You are warmly invited to become a contributor and share your enthusiasm.
