Art Series

 

The Foundations Art Series is a series of 54 art cards that can be found in Magic: The Gathering Foundations Play Boosters.

Description

The front side depicts a piece of art from the set in either landscape or portrait orientation. The card back is mostly blank, with some collector's info (Magic logo, illustration credits, legal text, and collector numbers). These are similar to an artist's proofs and thus provide room to get an artist's signature or drawing on it. They can also be used as tokens for copy effects, as proxies, or if it is for a legendary creature it could be a good way to store experience counters, life total, commander tax, etc.

There are no foil art cards. Instead, all of them are treated with a specially developed gloss varnish that brings out the art. The backs are left uncoated. Art cards appear 30% of the time in the 15th slot of Play Boosters (alternating with ad cards, tokens and helper cards). Five percent of the time, rather than a normal art card, you'll get one with a gold-stamped signature of the artist. Every art card exists in both its normal version and its signature version.
