Black Label Draw Card, African Royals Playing cards
Playing games such as Snap or 21 and advancing to Black Jack and Poker, we use cards and never question the images we see as
Kings, Queens and Jacks. The never changing English pattern cards that we have always used has images that reflect only one part
of society. The psychological effects of us always seeing others in positions of power and authority and also of not seeing those who
look like us in these positions, is something that has a monumental impact and one that I hope to address with this set of playing cards.
Imagine playing with Kings and Queens that look like you, or older versions of you, or members of your family, friends and so on.
Making them easy to relate to, also giving children and adults, the ability to subconsciously visualise themselves in these roles and
positions. It becomes something that in the minds of the players, is completely normal, even if the reality does not yet reflect that.
This is a step towards that reality.
These cards are something special that should be in every collection, whether you're a card player or not. For those who say that
they are too nice for the children to play with, rest assured the cards are just as durable as any premium quality playing cards and
more importantly, remember the impact that it will have on them, on a conscious and a subconscious level.
