Batter up! The third series of the collectible author trading cards you’ve always imagined were possible but never dared to dream are here.
For years you’ve seen athletes, web-slinging superheroes, orcs, and pocket monsters get the trading-card treatment, while you’ve sat in your room hoping upon hope that the heroes of magical realism or giants of New Journalism would get their own. The wait is over, friends. Last year McSweeney’s began publishing specialty author cards, and now series three has arrived. Each pack includes fifteen cards printed on high-quality paper, each featuring bios, trivia, little-known publishing stats, original illustrated portraits, and huge fun. (No chewing gum included.)
Keep your eyes out for more author decks, arriving at surprising intervals (possibly during Major League Baseball season), and don’t miss the chance to commemorate your favorite writers with these charming and unforgettable trading cards.
This three-pack bundle of McSweeney’s Author Cards includes packs 7–9, bedecked by Gabriel Garcia Márquez, Judy Blume, and Joan Didion respectively.
