Since a series of 12 decks would be too ambitious for a single project, we decided to launch the first deck dedicated to the PIG year (2019) and then to continue within a year.

About the Deck: Cards have been beautifully illustrated combining ancestral and modern techniques. The original drawings have been created with a Buddhist painting technique called “nagtan”. This technique uses dark backgrounds and luminous brush strokes. The digital treatment of these illustrations eliminates the dark backgrounds to achieve cleaner and more colorful cards.

Each deck has been customized according to the animal it represents. Thus, the court cards show animals with human aspect and dressed in colorful period costumes. The faces are full of details.

Each deck also includes texts with relevant aspects for each sign such as positive and negative colors, lucky numbers, matching signs and enemies, etc…

In addition, each deck will have four jokers for joker collectors.

Portfolio52 proudly presents a series of custom poker size decks of playing cards designed with a touch of oddity by Stockholm17. The Odd Fellows are a care-free crew, unbothered by the norms of "functioning members of society". Come aboard and meet a couple of supremely odd characters, each with their own blend of cards and art packaged in personality that's almost too much for your eyes to handle. This project is the first official P52-branded project created as an ode to our love of playing cards. Join our crew in a celebration of the odd and reckless.

The Sir Octo deck features pearlescent blacks and vibrant reds across the barrel embossed case. 17 marks scratch across the top signifying the date of the launch and the number of Stockholm17. On the face of the deck is Sir Octo himself with a custom diecut to show a peek of what is inside.

The custom illustrated court cards feature a wildly intoxicated bunch with custom illustrations for each individual pip. The back designs are also 100% custom to each deck in the Odd Fellows series while still maintaining a cohesive design to maintain integrity throughout. This special deck was unlocked at the $100k mark of the Kickstarter campaign and features an upgraded cold foil reflective back design that differentiates it from the other two standard decks of the series.

The Odd Fellows Playing Card Series features many Odd Fellows but Sir Octo was exclusive to kickstarter and gilded in bright red.

The Limited Edition deck comes in a matchbox style box with a plain white tuckbox inside it. The card with the matches on it is meant to be placed so it will be visible when you slide open the matchbox. The box even has a rough 'striker' area on the side just like an actual matchbox.
