New website launched Bird Playing Cards are pleased to announce the launch of their redesigned website. Presentation is clearer and navigation simpler. The site has been designed and built by London-based graphic designers Haime & Butler. What the press said: 13 year-old mezzo-soprano wows Twickenham crowd Arsenal's Fabregas accused of spitting Unfortunately this news overshadowed the relaunch of our site. Recent additions to the collection The last year has been a bumper year for Bird Playing Cards, with ten packs published in the last few months alone. Our latest packs include STRIKE IT LUCKY! [match box labels], WONDERS of the WORLD, RAIL ART [railway posters], Classic MOVIE POSTERS, AMERICA'S CUP, GREEK & ROMAN ART, TITANIC, BON VOYAGE! [luggage labels] and SKI ART [ski posters]. Forthcoming projects We are currently working on new projects such as man on the moon [with London's Science Museum] commemorating the 40th anniversary of mankind's giant leap and Famous VC's, a celebration of acts of outstanding bravery by heroes of the British and Commonwealth armies [with the Imperial War Museum]. We are always keen to hear of imaginative ideas for new packs. Please contact us at info@birdplayingcards if you have a suggestion. |
‘Superb, imaginative cards - BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED AND PRESENTED - to enliven the dullest bridge hand, and make even Old Maid seem fun...’ LBC ‘I loved Willie Rushton's caricatures of our Royal Family in his PACK OF ROYALS. And I am naturally excited by the rare photos unearthed for my own pack devoted to my Grandfather WINSTON CHURCHILL - in his finest hour, the war years’ Celia Sandys, Churchill's granddaughter, who selected the Imperial War Museum photos that appear on every card in CHURCHILL: WALKING WITH DESTINY ‘Bird Playing Cards - particularly the ART PACK, THE NUDE and ART DETAIL - are a brilliant and amusing trip through the history of western painting, a lovely way to learn...’ Rachel Barnes, National Gallery lecturer, author and broadcaster |
