Prequel and Sequel Playing Cards

Rediscover the magic of hand-drawn storytelling with Room One's latest deck with the charm of early animation. Currently funding on Kickstarter, this project pays homage to the Golden Age of Animation through expressive, era-authentic design and a sense of unsettling nostalgia.

The deck follows a lovable canine protagonist as he rides the emotional highs and lows of life... a rollercoaster rendered in richly illustrated custom pips and suits. 

Every element captures the spirit of classic cartoons, celebrating the creativity and emotion that defined the dawn of animated cinema.

Available in two editions- Prequel and Sequel, each features its own visual motifs and custom seal. For collectors, limited Gilded Editions of both versions will be printed based on campaign demand, making them rare, ephemeral tributes to an era when characters danced across the screen frame by frame.

Pledge starts at $15 on Kickstarter.
