Chicken Playing Cards
Chicken Playing Cards designed by Susan Krupp, 2017.
Chicken-themed playing cards designed by Canadian artist Susan Krupp, 2017. Nice informal and lightly humourous designs. The 12 court cards show chicken personalities, some of them wearing crowns in regal poses. The image on the back, which also appears on the box, is of three roosters playing cards. All cards have a textured background inspired by feathers and the four aces are especially impressive. The jokers are, of course, foxes! See the Box►
