This is a unique piece of artwork.

These  are some hand made cards I have created using my own water colour paintings.

I have used an original painting as a base to insert into a computer template I have made and then printed and finished a card.

I have put a lot of time into getting an effect that is quite pleasing to handle.

I have tried to represent the quality of the cards of that time , with flaws here and there.they are the right size and feel great when you sort them out in your hand. As a collector of football cards myself it is a strange sensation to handle these cards knowing they are not real but could be.

I have imagined producing some cards that don't actually exist . For instance there is a gap of George Best cards in the late 60s and I have also imagined a Best Rookie card.

I have also created cards of other iconic players of the era.

Please study the photos to see them.

They are sold altogether as a piece of artwork of  cards. They would display well in a folder of other cards of the 1960s and 70s and as part of a collection would make an unusual and rare edition .

I will be making more of these cards in the future but only by hand for the joy of creating them and adding them to my own collection.

All in all I hope this is a piece of retro fun.
