Created in collaboration with artist Dan Frederickson,, each uncut sheet, measuring 22 x 26.5 inches, features Ross Bertram’s photo of Vernon, reimagined through the text of The Expert at The Card Table. The reverse, playing cards one through fifty-two, is a reproduction of the Bee® brand deck Erdnase would have used at the turn of the century. Each uncut sheet is paired with a signed and numbered certificate in the form of a deck of cards. Additionally included are a museum-grade placard, letter pressed and fit for a gallery, and a playing card featuring a facsimile of Vernon’s signature and his age old mantra: “be natural.” Join us as we invite you to hang history on the wall - a true work of art and a constant source of inspiration. Signed and numbered edition of 500.

NOTE - The front of the uncut sheet has standard deck faces and the uncut was meant to show the back which in uncut form has this portrait, as a result the uncut back is considered the front for this entry.
