Tim Burton!

2010-09-18T09:34:00.003-04:00

Here are the jokers from the Tim Burton deck. Found their way here all the way from NY!

Before we get to the older ones...

2010-09-02T21:02:00.002-04:00

I'd like to introduce my Shakespearean Jokers! Did I even spell that correctly? I probably did. Anyway, of course, now I have to understand what they mean, at one point... Note: The bottom two are from the "Insults" deck! :)

About My Original Collection

2010-03-26T12:43:00.002-04:00

...It's found everyone! It wasn't stolen! :) And soon, I will be posting some of my older and newer jokers again!

-Take care now, Cheers!

Juggling jokers

2008-06-22T20:20:00.002-04:00

Here are 2 sets of juggling jokers. *whisper* I like the bottom ones better! :)

Architecture

2008-06-22T20:11:00.001-04:00

These are very nice ones, too. But I don't know where this architecture is and it doesn't write on the cards either. So if anybody knows where and what this is, could you please drop me a comment? Thank you! :)

No title.

2008-06-22T19:58:00.002-04:00

These two have nothing in common except for their place among the cards. I love them both!

Bicycles!

2007-10-25T18:56:00.000-04:00

Here are the Bicycle jokers! Since my previous collection has disappeared, I won't be able to share the old Bicycle jokers that I had with you, so sorry about that. But these Bicycle jokers, especially the transparent ones are among my favorites!

Unicycle

2007-10-25T18:54:00.000-04:00

This is a small sized joker from a cheap deck. I always like the unicycles though.

Two odd-shaped jokers

2007-10-25T18:50:00.000-04:00

Here are two odd-shaped jokers. The first picture is the back of the second one. And the round playing cards, unfortunately, didn't specify the joker name on the card but this is the only joker the deck had.

Optical illusion

2007-10-25T18:48:00.000-04:00

Notice the profile within the face? It's a neat one. :)

Merry little fellas

2007-10-25T18:45:00.000-04:00

I love these little fellows. :)

Tralalla!...

2007-10-25T18:42:00.000-04:00

Here's another lovely musical pair!

Hats!

2007-08-11T22:48:00.000-04:00

Here's a nice pair with an illustration that I like, hat on top of J. This is it for today! :)

no title. :)

2007-08-11T22:46:00.000-04:00

This is one of my favorites.

Small ones...

2007-08-11T22:40:00.000-04:00

Here's a nice pair! I should've scanned them together I guess...Well, they're all right.

JokerBlog is back online!

2007-08-11T22:32:00.000-04:00

Hello dear visitors, friends and fellow collectors. JokerBlog is finally online again. I have some bad news though, my original collection is either lost or stolen. Yes, it's very sad. I can't tell you enough how sad I was. There's still a chance it may be found though. Until I know for sure what happened to them, I will be posting my new jokers. And yes, unfortunately my bunch of precious duplicates are gone too, so I'm like a new collector again. It's sad how this happened before I could upload all my collection. It's a shame on my part, believe me. So, before making this too long, I want to go ahead and restart posting my joker entries, hope you all enjoy it.

This is an important declaration for my friends & the viewers of JokerBlog:

2006-07-26T13:55:00.000-04:00

Due to technical circumstances, JokerBlog will remain static for an unknown period of time. As the owner of the collection herein and the author of JokerBlog, I wish to declare my deep apologies regarding the elongated stay of any unwanted,inconvenient material [posted as 'comment-ads'] on the website.
I sadly have to add that, in order to prevent any future repetitions of the situation, JokerBlog will be blocked to comments for the same unknown period of time.
Fellow collectors are always welcome to send e-mails regarding 'information exchange' on jokers. The possibility of instant response and swapping is currently related to technical conveniency. With the presence of this conveniency, a new solution will be sought for the preservence of 'comment-interaction' on JokerBlog.
As a believer in keeping the world-wide-web a clean medium, I would like to repeat my apologies and also declare that the best solutions are intended to be used to keep not only inconvenient but also -if found necessary- irrelevant content out of Jokerblog from now on. This 'might' later on include the removal of the 'Shoutboard', a tool that I love to have on my site, but if it becomes necessary for the sake of the primary principles of the site, then in that case, I would have to back up the code and remove the Shoutboard for a period of time as well.
These circumstances stated, JokerBlog will continue to remain a 'G-Rated website' [if you will] as it's been intended to, at the very beginning of its existence.
Thank you for taking the time to consider the apology and for your unprejudiced patience regarding the inconvenient material that's been unintentionally allowed to stay on the site by me, the author, due to technical circumstances.
I look forward to swapping and interacting with fellow collectors from all over the world -when it becomes possible again :)- and I hope you enjoy your stay while here, on JokerBlog.
Keep up the cheers and the good work! - Jokeresse.

To my collector friends from all around the world...

2006-01-10T11:22:00.000-05:00

Hello my dear friends,
I haven't been doing much for a long time. The site will most probably be inactive for some time too. I might use it as a journal though, I hope you're all doing well, take care..:)

2005-06-04T11:38:00.000-04:00

***JOKERBLOG will be updated at the end of June.***

back again....

2005-01-31T18:23:00.000-05:00

Hello dear visitors!

I know I haven't updated this site for some time. I've been kind of busy, so, sorry about the inactive site. Meanwhile, I've been getting some nice e-mails and offers from people around the world for swapping. I have to say that I will review my collection very soon when I will have time and re-arrange them in a better way and also scan the ones I haven't yet scanned and continue posting them here. I will also post some duplicates.
I also want to add that I have received a very nice e-mail from a new friend in Malta, Joe, who told me he visited this website and it made him decide he also wanted to collect jokers. This was a very nice thing for me to hear and I just wanted to share that. Joe, thank you for the very nice e-mail! :) And I hope I can help your collection.
And Huub, I will also contact you soon, sorry I haven't written for so long...
Take care everyone, until next time...

2004-09-21T13:18:00.000-04:00

Now that's a quartet :)) (a trio if we don't count the black-and-white guy:P)

2004-09-21T13:15:00.000-04:00

Some more nice ones :)

2004-09-21T13:13:00.000-04:00

a pair from a really low-quality deck...

2004-09-20T20:27:00.000-04:00

My favorite Carta Mundi's, the Millenium pair! Thank you again, Huub! :) I don't know if the one on the far right is also a Carta Mundi, it seemed so to me, so if anyone knows, please drop a comment :)

2004-09-20T20:19:00.000-04:00

Some more Carta Mundi...

2004-09-20T20:10:00.000-04:00

Carta Mundi Fun! These cards are Carta Mundi Company's jokers. (Belgium) These are NOT duplicates, they are all different, and so are the ones coming up..:) Thanks Huub for the cards and Carta Mundi knowledge..

2004-09-20T20:00:00.000-04:00

4 different jokers from Netherlands..:)

2004-09-20T19:49:00.000-04:00

The pair on top are the first cards I had received from my friend Huub :) And you can see some variations (of less quality) I found at the bottom..

2004-09-20T19:37:00.000-04:00

The one on the right is also kind of old, look at the colors..:) (info would be appreciated) and I don't have much info about the one on the left either. I bought these 2 from an antique shop and the one on the left has a Toyota commercial behind it :P

2004-09-20T19:28:00.000-04:00

This pair was a gift from my boyfriend, Yalim :) Thank you!

2004-09-20T19:22:00.000-04:00

Ok, another not-very-new-one on the right. Info on that is also appreciated! :) And thanks to Huub for the one on the left!

2004-09-20T19:16:00.000-04:00

This lovely trio consists of probably the oldest jokers of my collection. I have no idea of their date, but they seem more than at least 25 years old to me. Info is greatly appreciated on this, if you know about it! :) (the one on the far right is not a jack :) )

2004-09-20T18:56:00.000-04:00

*Interesting ones* After the odd-shaped and transparent ones, this is the 3rd group of interesting jokers. Here, you can see the biggest and smallest pieces of my collection. It's a pity that someone has written on the smallest ones, but it's not me for sure! The one on the lower right corner is a regular sized joker for reference. You should be able to see the approximate real sizes when you click on the image.

2004-09-20T18:32:00.000-04:00

This pair is from a deck I bought in France...By the way, I found the artist of the character in my previous post. Of course, on the back of the card! How silly I was...It's "Diddl die Springmaus" by Thomas Goletz.

2004-09-20T18:18:00.000-04:00

The one on the left is from a deck designed by a famous turkish caricature artist, Semih Balcioglu. The one on the right was a present from a boss at one of mypast workplaces, but I couldn't find the artist of that one..I'd be happy if anyone could help me on that one...I love that character!

2004-09-20T06:21:00.000-04:00

***Bicycle Jokers*** This is the set of bicycle jokers I have for now. These are all different, and the one on the left lower corner was sent to me by my mother who is in VA right now as a present :) Thank you "aneynaz" :) It means a lot...

2004-09-18T19:46:00.000-04:00

This is a wonderful trio sent to me by my friend Huub :) (Thank you Huub!)

2004-09-18T19:27:00.000-04:00

DUPLICATES-II

2004-09-18T19:22:00.000-04:00

"DUPLICATES" Here is the first group of duplicates. I will put this title in caps whenever I'm posting a group of duplicates. So it will be easier to locate among the posts. I will try to make this process more systematic, until then, this is the first group :)

My counter!

2004-09-16T19:37:00.000-04:00

Whoohoo!! :) I finally put my counter too..But still, not much is done for the links, well, couldn't figure out today. Now I'm gonna put my "ignore-me" cookie for the counter :P Or it would seem like so many are visiting in no time...Anyway, let me see how this works...OK, got that one too from now on.

2004-09-16T18:49:00.001-04:00

Image sizes

2004-09-16T18:39:00.000-04:00

Well, I wonder why it hasn't showed the previous jokers at their real sizes. Normally they shoud be bigger..Anyway, I'll try to fix that...

2004-09-16T18:37:00.001-04:00

2004-09-16T18:07:00.000-04:00

This is a pair of jokers from the Fenerbahce soccer team deck. Well, I support Galatasaray but this is a pretty good deck, so congrats to FB! :) By the way, sorry about the ever-changing thumbnail sizes, you can see the real sizes when you click on the images..I'll try to keep the thumbnails smaller from now on..

2004-09-16T17:53:00.000-04:00

Here's another nice trio :)

Link test...

2004-09-14T14:08:00.000-04:00

OK, until I figure out how to edit a "links list" I will post my friend Huub's link here...After I've figured out that, there'll be lots of links to different joker collection sites on my blog... :)

'Nuff fun for the day...

2004-09-14T13:11:00.001-04:00

Well, I'm so happy to have found a good way to post my jokers on the web...I'll stick with this method until I can build my own website I guess...(Still learning the basics of html, wait and see til I learn CSS and more cool stuff:) )

Anyway, I won't be posting any new ones today, but when it's about my collection, there's one person I have to thank. Huub, my friend from Netherlands has helped me a LOT on my collection, thank you Huub! I'll send your cards as soon as possible, there's a pair that's really funny in there :)

Bye now.

2004-09-14T13:11:00.000-04:00

Another favorite trio,not as favorite as the girls though :P

2004-09-14T12:43:00.000-04:00

My favorite trio...

2004-09-14T12:31:00.000-04:00

This wasn't my first-ever piece of the collection but it's one of my favorites...

Hello!!!

2004-09-14T12:12:00.000-04:00

OK, after several online journals & blogs and helpless attempts to create a website for my joker collection, I think I might have found a good way to post my joker pictures...I'll try to post my first joker here now, we'll see what happens...:)
