card deck

2000

A round deck of playing cards is first a novelty. However, it is also true that no player can fold over a corner on the queen of spades, for example. Round cards are not a new idea--they've been "around" for nearly one hundred years. And fittingly, the planet Mars is the image printed on these cards' backs.
