CMYK Playing Cards
As our creative lives and works become increasingly digital, artifacts of print technology are given an air of nostalgia (and fun) that bits and bytes just can’t replicate. For example, check out these CMYK playing cards from the clever folks at Hundred Million.

Hearts, clubs, spades, and diamonds are replaced with cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. Numbers are represented as ink percentages, and the design on the backs of the cards features registration and other printer’s marks.


A deck of the cards goes for £14.50 GBP, including shipping (currently about $22 US).
