Orbit: Fifth Edition
Similar to the Fourth Edition, the back design reveals its beauty in a fan or spread. This time however, the design spills over the borders with a comet trailing to the very edge of the cards, creating a stunning new visual designed specifically for cardists. The changes don't just stop there, the tuck case is also internally printed and constructed from matte paper with a more minimal overall appearance for a streamlined aesthetic.
Mountains inspired by the Uranian moon, Miranda, can be found surrounding the 'perfect circle' on the back design and tuck case. Miranda is particularly relevant to Chris 'Orbit' Brown - first discovered in 1948, the year his Dad was born and first photographed in 1986, the year he was born.
All colours throughout the cards have been given a matte finish to mimic the tuck case and provide the user with a feeling of smoothness.
