Little White Lies commissions 41 illustrators to create their own House of Cards

Date
11 November 2016

Publication Little White Lies has created a series of limited edition playing cards for Sony Home Entertainment. The deck of cards includes 41 illustrative commissions featuring works by Eric Chow, Daniel Prothero and David Mahoney.

Inspired by the American political drama, House of Cards the cards "chronicle scenes and themes from the rise of Francis “Frank” Underwood, played with reptilian menace by Kevin Spacey, as he slithers his way up the corridors of power" says the magazine. Little White Lies hits the nail on the head by saying that this year’s US Presidential campaign has been “stranger than fiction”, demonstrating this by illustratively representing the television series alongside current affairs.

In order to get your hands on one of these pack of cards yourself you can enter a competition on Twitter with @SonyPicsAtHome.
