Musical Jokers and some Dogs

The top two jokers are a simple line drawing of a jester with a trumpet.  It's from a very beautiful custom deck created by Wayne, a Baltimore music teacher. The other cards in the deck are illustrated with images of different instruments and have encoded in musical notation the number of the cards.  It's an interesting idea.  He sells them under the name Nana-Pie.

The bottom two jokers are of man's best friend and the art exxagerates the difference in perspective when you look at dogs' noses from different angles.  The deck is copyright artist International  and is called: The DOB Artist Collection.
