The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation has partnered with Art of Play to design a commemorative pack of playing cards based on the legendary Midway Gardens.

Wright pioneered the use of reinforced concrete as an architectural and artistic medium. His cast blocks and sculptures, called Sprites, are prominently depicted on the face cards. The pips feature original Wright typography, and the back design recreates his iconic stained glass window. Sadly, this cultural treasure was destroyed in 1929, but through these cards, the memory of Midway Gardens lives on.
