Wright Brothers Fig. 2 Standard

Inspired by the groundbreaking Wilbur and Orville Wright. The Wright Brothers Playing Cards find their expression in a retro-futuristic style, that peculiar crossroads where yesterday’s dreamers sketched tomorrow’s impossible machines with pencil in hand and a head full of dreams. In this marriage of the technical prowess and wonder, the rigorous lines of schematics learn to breathe, to dream, to suggest that what cannot be might simply not yet be. What better way to capture the birth of flight than the technical sketch, the suspended disbelief, the beauty of an idea just before realization?

This STANDARD Edition is no ordinary tuck box. Open the Tuckbox and bring the Wright Brothers' story to life, adding an interactive element of wonder to your collection. Open up the box and watch the propeller spin!

Inside, you will discover 55 fully customized playing cards that pay homage to the rich tapestry of Andersen's masterful storytelling. Experience the blend of artistry and functionality in this mesmerizing signature edition.

Court Cards The colors scheme of this series truly come to life in the court cards, featuring illustrations of pilot, adventurers, explorers bold enough to brave the skies. Backed by the rustic color block, highlighting the figure in their vintage flight suits, grease-stained gloves, and their quiet confidence of their trusty compass.

Number Cards Every pip and numeral has been meticulously redrawn, inspired by the handwriting on patent diagrams and the hand-lettered labels on a vintage instrument panel. The pips themselves are precise, blocked shapes geometric and clean, much like the precision of the machined and fabricated components of a plane.

Card Backs All editions feature a mechanical animated flipbook sequence on the card backs. When fanned, the propeller of the Wright Flyer comes to life. A direct homage to the Wright brothers' quiet conviction that the direction of human history could be changed with enough trials, enough gas, enough wind.
