About This Design

Sockeye Salmon - Alaska Postage Playing Cards

Sockeye Salmon - Alaska Postage Playing Cards

This is one of a series of postage stamps of an imaginary independent Alaska. It depicts a male sockeye salmon, hovering over a rocky streambed with the red coloration, humped back and hooked snout characteristic of spawning. Text reading, "Alaska", POSTAGE 25 NUGGETS", "Sockeye Salmon" and "Oncorhynchus nerka" also appear. Text reading, "2024" indicates the year of issue. Customize by adding your own additional text. The sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), aka red salmon, is found in the Northern Pacific Ocean and rivers discharging into it. Sockeyes take on a bright red coloration during spawning. Males, particularly, develop a humped back and hooked snout. Some populations, referred to as kokanee, do not migrate to the ocean and live their entire lives in fresh water. Oncorhynchus is from the Greek ὄγκος (onkos) meaning "barb", and ῥύγχος (rhynchos) meaning "snout". Nerka is the Russian word for the anadromous form. The name "sockeye" is an anglicization of suk-kegh (sθə́qəy̓), its name in Halkomelem, the language of the indigenous people along the lower reaches of the Fraser River (one of British Columbia's many native Coast Salish languages). Suk-kegh means "red fish".

Upon seeing that I could print my personal photo onto a deck of cards, I was very excited. Seeing the image that I captured 54 times while playing card games is an a great way to spend time. There is no limit to the amount of people that can play cards and admire the photo on the back. At first I thought it would only be a small amount of people that would want and use the cards but then more and more people wanted to see my photo on the cards. People are recognizing the value of playing cards instead of video games. This was a great idea! The printing turned out exactly as described when I aligned everything before placing the order. Very happy with the way the printing turned out.

Thank You - I am organizing a memorial tournament for a great friend. The cards are fantastic. They feel almost like real Bicycle Cards. The image I uploaded took beautifully. I will likely be ordering more. .
