About the Original Iraqi Most Wanted Playing Cards:
"The cards were made by the U.S. military ... [a playing card company executive] who hasn't seen the Iraqi cards other than in a photo said they don't appear to be "real playable cards. They have no rounded corners and look like paper with no lamination." ... The cards were made up by wags at the Defense Intelligence Agency, which is on the hunt for the depicted characters.
"We printed them ourselves," the Defense official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, adding that the cards are not plastic-coated and likely would wear out after only a few games of poker. Defense officials said they have no plans for any additional printing runs...
