Look for the Autographed Trading Card by Pepper

Also included in the 25-card set is a card depicting the oil on canvas art of Pepper. One in four of these cards is autographed by Pepper. Many tattoo artists work in other mediums, Tattoo Art Trading Cards will feature their fantastic art. Look for more art cards from tattoo artists in future releases of Tattoo Art Trading Cards.

The first printing of the first set is off to the printers

     Two years later, after many ups and downs, my Tattoo Art Trading Card project is coming to fruition. I just gave the official okey dokey to the printer. I am more than anxious to see the completed set. I had this idea over two years ago, and I put it out there on the Internet and through the artists I contacted. When I first thought of the concept of a set of trading cards, featuring the art of tattoo artists, I checked the Internet for anything like my concept. I found absolutely nothing remotely resembling my idea. Now, I have noticed a couple of other upstarts, who are producing my exact concept. This is great news, it validates my idea, and makes me the originator of a well-received new collectible. Mimicry sincerely is the purest form of flattery.

Cover Card for the Original Tattoo Art Trading Card Set

     Judging from the websites I've seen, these other companies are producing nice trading cards as well. I would suggest the collector check out all of the sets available. However, of course, the original trading cards featuring the art of the tattoo are Tattoo Art Trading Cards, produced by Frank Eachus Publications.
