Although the King of Rock and Roll died 41 years ago last week, Elvis Presley is still one of the most listened-to artists on the planet. At any minute of any day, someone somewhere is listening to the classics that Presley left behind. His songs are so firmly entrenched into the musical landscape that he has well passed the status of being a performer, icon, or legend and is in an indescribable class by himself.
Due to the enduring popularity of the King, he remains a merchandising juggernaut, even in death. Which brings us to this week’s Sunday Funday post. Aquarius has released a deck of playing cards, with each of the 52 cards featuring a different image from Elvis Presley’s career. These officially licensed poker-sized cards (sized 2.5″ x 3.5″) feature a linen type finish that make them as stylish as they are durable. So invite over your favorite Hound Dogs for a round or two of your favorite card game. Just “Don’t Be Cruel” if you have a losing hand.
Get the Elvis black and white playing cards here.
Each week, our Sunday Funday feature showcases the latest and greatest in the world of collectibles, apparel, and soundtracks.
