Check to you…     ….hello… eh… are you there?  Check to you.  Your bet!  Pay attention!

Sorry, I was busy reading my hand.  The Black Book Manifesto Deck ($15 @kickstarter.com) stirs the pot when it comes to the art of typography design.  Each card features an amazing thread of twisted and warped words that represent each of the 52 cards.  It even comes quipped with a playing card calendar in case you want to track down your official birthday date playing card.  You might have to get used to the monochromatic black and white, but if you want to make a statement on poker night, this could be it.
