Although Dean Morris Cards officially debuted in 1999, that is not when it began. When he was younger, he enjoyed spending time in the craft room creating unique greeting cards for friends and family members.
After finishing from Wolverhampton University with a degree in Fine Art, Dean was at a loss as to what he ought to do with his life. While in London, he visited a high-end art supply shop and saw a wide variety of handcrafted papers for sale; he decided to use some of these papers to create greeting cards to sell.
There was nothing more than some scrap paper, some glue, some sequins, and an idea when he first began out. A little luck, assistance from a local artist’s foundation, and advice and funding from The Princes Trust helped that concept take off. In 1999, I launched Dean Morris Cards as a side hustle; by 2003, it had become my full-time occupation.
Dean’s respect for the past and his own unique sense of humor inspired the designs of nearly all of the greeting cards and presents. To maintain the company’s distinctiveness, he creates greeting cards based on what tickles his funny bone and those of his pals.
As a result of the Daily Mail’s efforts to discredit Dean and his innovative style of combining retro designs with rude phrases, the Dean Morris Card brand has become one of the most well-known in the humour card industry.
He may no longer create his cards in a bedroom full of toxic vapors from glue and glitter, but Dean is still Dean. As he put it in a recent interview, “As a publisher, I’m a lot bigger than some people think but a lot smaller than other people think – despite the Daily Mail saying my cards pollute the High Street!”
Dean Morris Cards has regularly participated in trade shows since 1999, when he first did so with funding from The Prince’s Trust pooled with other artists and publishers. His rude family photo cards first made it to stores like But Is It Art in Reading, Berkshire, in the year 2000 thanks to a tiny 2m x 2m stand in Earls Court. After all these years, they remain loyal clients.
Photos, sequins, and glitter were all hand-glued to cards in those early days. The card’s design helped it gain entry to prestigious establishments like London’s Selfridges and Paperchase’s flagship shop on Tottenham Court Road.
It takes a lot of time and effort to make homemade greeting cards, and you’ll definitely get some strange looks if you purchase 20 tubes of UHU glue at once. Everything was published with an emphasis on racy humor.
A sales representative at the Top Drawer trade show once told a client that while smut, filth, and swearing do sell cards, “It’s not all fuck and bugger.” The World War II sign “Keep Calm and Carry On” became an international phenomenon in 2010.
Dean was the first publishing house to sell greeting cards featuring the image of this famous WWII poster; with the help of Barter Books, the artwork was reproduced from a high-resolution scan of the original poster. The manufacturers were unable to keep up with the high demand for this card, which outsold the best-selling cards by a factor of nearly ten to one.
The poster’s stunning design inspired Dean to create his own versions of the poster, one of which became the widely recognizable “Shut Up and Deal With It” design.
Dean’s best sales are birthday cards and Christmas cards. Making a card about wanking too much out of something as pure and harmless as Christmas.
Those who follow Dean on Instagram or Twitter will be aware of his passion for exploring new places and taking to the air. And this has provided the impetus for a variety of airline employee birthday gifts. And it turns out Crew adore them; I was once asked, “Excuse me, you aren’t by any chance the Dean Morris of Dean Morris Cards are you?” by a flight attendant on a Virgin Atlantic flight. The attendant turned out to have a keychain and a stash of emergency birthday cards in their crew bag.
