Card game, 2008 is held by Skelleftea museum, dated 2008. Museum description: Deck of cards in a commonly found design featuring Skellefteå AIK's maple leaf and four sets of tiger stripes as the motif. The deck is made of paper by Öbergs spelkort, Esselte Sverige AB. They are packaged in thin plastic wrap and in a plastic box measuring 65x95 mm. The plastic wrap functions together with a band bearing the text Cartamundi as a seal. In the autumn of 2005, Skellefteå Museum began a documentation project focusing on the hockey culture around the hockey team Skellefteå AIK under the working title "Världens bästa AIK" [The World's Best AIK]. We asked members of the supporter club North Power, "ordinary hockey fans", and Skellefteå residents in general - what does Skellefteå AIK mean to you? We also investigated how sponsors view AIK - and what added value the hockey team provides to their product. Parts of the material were assembled into an exhibition about the team itself and also about specific individual players; the exhibition was named "Visa hjärt [Show Heart]. The museum record gives material recorded as Printed Pressed; Plastic; Paper; measurements Width 56 mm. These details come from the holding museum's own record; how far this object represents a wider collectible type has not yet been independently verified.
