Uncle Joe’s Field Guide to Improbable Creatures

Uncle Joe’s Field Guide to Improbable Creatures is a satirical book of trading cards created and illustrated by artist Jethro Sleestak. View the Improbable Creatures trading cards.

There are two of each card in the book, allowing the reader to turn between a pair of cards and read the back of one card (description of the creature, fun fact, habitat) while viewing the creature’s picture on the face of the second card. The pages of the book are perforated card stock, allowing cards to be removed from the book and traded.

The Improbable Creatures trading cards have a format different from most types of trading cards. Their faces are not cluttered with distractions and use a clean borderless design so that they resemble greeting cards or stickers more than traditional trading cards.

The artist would like to find a publisher for this project so that he can spend more time drawing and writing.
