Chic Singapore-themed merchandise are always a favorite among us, from Telegram stickers to tote bags to cushions and more. With National Day coming up next week, we’re back in that capitalist-patriotic mood once again.

Enter fifty-two, comprising of 52 wonderfully drawn illustrations of Singaporean cultural artefacts and icons past and present immortalized into a set of playing cards. Created by social media agency PROTOCOL, the cards make gorgeous homages to everything from country erasers to the saman lady, and we can all relate to the icons they reference.

Unfortunately, the cards have just sold out — seems like we’re all really gearing up for National Day. But you can still pre-order them via the Facebook page (drop a DM) or through Naiise (with an estimated turnaround time of 30 days) at $20 per set.
