I would so love to have one of those posters! Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Do you know of any other cards I may have missed that have Jester/Joker related art?

I try to think of other, if you are a real completist, 2 cards have the word Jester in their flavor text:
Bubble Matrix (Weatherlight)
Frenetic Raptor (Legions)

I missed those! I’ll have to see if I can locate a few to add to my binder. I just recently found Showstopper while browsing cards on MTGO. I still need several foreign 9th edition Jester’s Caps as well as some of the others so my collection is not as complete JesterSB’s collection. However I really enjoy looking for them and finding new ones that I don’t have.

One more: Jester's Cap print. Prize from a Duelist Magazine contest during the Ice Age release. It was a runner up prize in the contest, I don't know how many runner ups got one or if it was distributed in other ways or not. There's probably some advertising about it in one of the 10 first issues of The Duelist.

I am not sure how rare they are, I have been looking for one since I first seen them... Funny you should mention it though, because I just won an auction last night for one of these that is in much worse condition. Do you own this one? Regardless, is going in a frame and with me to a GP next time Mr. Frazer is in town. I would love to know how many where made... I have a sealed Duelist that has the oversize Jester’s Cap in it but, all my other old Duelist got lost.

Hi

Glad you won it, even if it was not in perfect condition, that's why I've tagged you. I don't own any, I'm not a Jester's Cap collector, I just help you. I believe that the contest advertisement pages might be in The Duelist issues #5 and #6 that were the ones about Ice Age:

Awesome! Thanks you. What’s sad is I know I have a copy of #5 & #6 somewhere in a box of comics and old martial arts magazines… Time to start digging! I would love to know the backstory of it because that is when I first started playing Magic; I got those to magazines to learn what the game was…

I always thought the 8th Edition (and newer) Royal Assassin looked kinda jester-like. maybe that's just me though.

I had seen that watch just after it had sold. Nice one! That’s one to add to my list. The 8th edition Royal Assassin does kind of resemble a jester. Perhaps with his head covered to conceal his identity. I like it… Thanks! :D
Also picked up a few Bubble Matrix & Frenetic Raptor to add to my collection, can’t leave out Arcum Dagsson from the quote on jester’s cap.
Do any of the Ice Age era comics mention the jester’s cap at all?

There's 6 of them. I won't be able to help as they belong to my sealed MTG Comics collection, I will check, if I don't have some extras opened.

This blows my mind, and makes me insanely jealous. I've loved Jester's Cap since it's release. It NEVER occurred to me to attempt anything on this level. I bow down to your awesome collection.

Wish I'd seen this earlier, own some of the posters...though I don't think they were designed as posters at all. They were meant to be book covers. That is what makes them rare IMHO, because to use them as a book cover destroys them.
