Today, Jackson Robinson will launch Kings Wild Tigers Playing Cards on Kickstarter. Inspired by the bold designs and colors of vintage matchboxes, Jackson has always been interested and also inspired by printing methods and aesthetics of the late 1800s and early 1900s, especially the wide range of matchbook ephemera produced all over the world. According to Jackson,

I find it so interesting that so much beauty and variety can be found in material that at the time was produced to be “throw away”. This project is an artistic study and creation, in the form of playing cards, that pays homage to the beautiful world of matchbook printing of the late 1800s and early 1900s.

There are two editions being offered in the campaign, the Standard Edition and Limited Edition. Both decks are fully custom with hand-illustrated artwork.

The Standard Edition deck feature beautiful bold designs and colors of vintage matchbox artwork. The color palette and design have been applied to the vintage court cards, giving it a consistent look throughout. The deck is packaged in a vintage matchbox style designs, fully printed on the inside and out. Sealed with a fully custom vintage style tax stamp.

The Limited Edition deck feature a classic full bleed casino-styled back design, unique aces, and an all-tiger court cards.

The deck is secured in a vintage matchbox-styled tuck case with an actual sandpaper strike strip. The tuck is capped with a fully custom hand numbered vintage styled tax stamp. Only 1000 will be produced.

Both decks will be printed by the USPCC on air cushion embossed card finish. Pledge starts from $12 for the Standard Edition and $38 for the Limited Edition. Add-ons such as uncut sheets, hat, and iron on patch.

Kings Wild Tigers will go live today (17th July 2018) at 7pm central on Kickstarter.
