Mugshots
A mugshot or mug shot, an informal term for police photos, is a photo portrait of a person from the waist up, usually taken after a person has been arrested. The original purpose of the mugshot was to allow law enforcement officers to have a photo report of an arrested person to allow identification purposes by victims, the public and investigators. Taking a mugshot doesn't imply guilt, it's just a report of arrest or incarceration.
These mugshots playing cards from Piatnik have 54 cardboard poker size cards with a standard index in 2 corners of the playing cards and include 2 Jokers.
