Mini mojo items I'm crazy about the blues. Especially the type put out by these early performers. I keep this deck in the accessory box of my brass bodied National Style O slide guitar. I draw inspiration from them when I play. WHen I meet someone who has soul, I have them take a look through them, explaining I want some of their vibe to rub off on the cards. Then I think of those people later t. "LOVE IT!" according to Michael Berger. If you are a fan of old school blues (the REAL blues), this is a great little collectible!! Really cool little set. Was missing a few guys I thought for sure would be in there(Robert Johnson, Leadbelly). but it is still a great set. If you like old blues, you can't lose..
