This is a deck of fun, colourful, informative, and just simply amazing playing cards!

I am so happy to let you all know that after many, many, many years of collecting playing cards, and writing reviews on other designers’ decks, I have finally got round to designing a deck of playing cards of my own.

Gaelic Games Playing Cards does what it says on the tin (or tuck box if you’re fussy…). It’s a deck inspired by, and in honour of, the ancient sports of Ireland – Hurling, Camogie, Gaelic Football, and Ladies Gaelic Football.

Grid. Series Three playing cards, is the third and final deck in the Grid. series, designed by London-based graphic designer Luke Wadey. This seems to be a disappointment to Luke’s legion of followers, because many of them are already coming up with ideas for a 4th deck. Sorry guys… not happening.

This deck is currently being funded on Kickstarter and if you know a good thing when you see it, you’ll be heading over to make a pledge before the campaign ends on 4th March 2019.

Grid. Series Three front fan. Stunning :)
