Take a step back in time, when Erdnase was alive. The Bee® Squeezers box is an exact reproduction of an early 1900's classic. The Bee® Worm back playing cards inside have been imprinted with an original Scott Kim ambigram that says, "S.W. Erdnase" or "W.E. Sanders" when turned end-for-end. Traditionally cut and printed by the US Playing Card Company on premium paper using their casino quality web press. Available for a limited time only. 
 
 
These limited edition Bee® Squeezers playing cards are offered to the public in commemoration of the enduring mystery of The Expert at the Card Table and its author, S.W. Erdnase. Among the men whose names have been discovered as anagrammatic equivalents (?) to the pseudonymous writer, W.E

. Sanders emerges as perhaps the most compelling. A longtime card player and a student of magic, Sanders was the kind of person who took half-a-dozen decks with him on a camping trip. Skilled in deception, he rearranged the letters in his name, tore pages from his diaries and snuck out of his home for late night visits to high-rolling private clubs. A mining engineer and professional writer by trade, Sanders was eccentric and brilliant, offering no justification and seeking no credit for the knowledge he imparted. But whatever the result of his actions may be, if they inspire lovers of card entertainment and legerdemain, then they will have provided the primary motive of card table artifice, as it needs the mystery.

Reproduced from an early 1900′s deck of Bee® Squeezers and branded with an anigram reading S.W. Erdnase in one direction and W.E. Sanders when turned over. Traditionally cut and printed by the US Playing Card Company on premium paper using their casino quality web press. Distributed in association with the Conjuring Arts Research Center and Dan and Dave Buck exclusively for Erdnaseum.

Erdnaseum was a gathering of notable magicians at Sanders’ historic home in Helena, Montana on August 26th and 27th, 2011 to discuss the potentials of Marty Demarests’ research. Further information regarding W.E. Sanders can be found in the September, 2011 issue of Genii Magazine.
