In collaboration with GBDL – This is the Card Pickers T-shirt.

Do you recall the feeling when you first picked up your scattered playing cards from the ground?

When I first stumbled upon The Card Pickers, it triggered a nostalgic memory of that exact feeling, bringing back a rush of awkward but delightful memories. As I returned to the present, I couldn\’t help but admire the fusion of classical oil painting with modern trends. In the artwork, those figures gathering ears of wheat were also reaching for playing cards. It\’s a seamless blend of history and fantasy.

Background

The design\’s essence is rooted in the backstory of the original painting, \’The Gleaners,\’ by Jean-Francois Millet. Millet\’s life journey from Paris to rural France mirrors the card-picking theme, symbolizing the revival of original aspirations.

The Card Pickers aims to rekindle our passion for magic. It symbolizes challenges faced in mastering magic, echoing the symbolism of gleaning from \’The Gleaners\’ painting.

The effect with The Card Pickers T-shirt is simple yet charming. A chosen card is revealed from the face-down card in the painting, extracted, and then magically returned. This effect, reminiscent of \’hamburger from signboard\’ or \’Rubik\’s cube from t-shirt,\’ requires no complex sleight of hand.

Furthermore, there is more than one face-up card in the painting. So, you can have more variety when performing your routine.

In addition to the The Card Pickers T-shirt, you\’ll also receive 80 stickers (Seven of Clubs). Each sticker can be used at least twice, providing over 100 performances.

Refills will be available separately.
