Deck View: Odd Bods Playing Cards

Playful. Charming. Elegant.

Shift 2. A brilliant deck of playing cards illustrated by Jonathan Burton. The Odd Bods Playing Cards first appeared in 2012 for the exclusive enjoyment of members of the prestigious Folio Society. Art of Play re-released the Odd Bods with an all-new back design and gold-foil embossed box.

The deck has been hand illustrated in a beautifully nostalgic style. The Odd Bods Playing Cards feature amusing characters, quirky illustrations and playful imagery. The deck has been designed to have the look of ‘aged’ Victorian lithographs with limited colour and slight printing errors.

Every image proves its own quirk and oddity, but is never ostentatious-- Odd Bods are the epitome of refined indulgence. A brilliant mix of surrealism and twists on the traditional icons and chucklesome juxtapositions in this deck.
