The Great Ezra

In 1918 The Great Ezra was the busiest magician of his day. He made five world tours, and amazed audiences from Paris to the Shanghai. Everywhere he went, he acquired a pack of cards...for you.

This is a promotional poster I designed for the World Tour Collection of playing cards. The most fun and challenging part of the design process for this project was making sure that all of the artwork looked of the time. There was a lot of research and image sourcing from public archives to make it happen.

I hope you enjoy it!
