Significance of Joker with his finger on his nose?

[juanez]

We have a poster hung in our room that has maybe 100 different Jokers from different decks displayed. Several of the Jokers have their finger on their nose.

Any clue what significance this has? /images/graemlins/confused.gif

Bump.

p.s.
I want a copy of that poster. Where'd you get it? Please and thank you.

A jolly joker holds his finger to one side of his nose - a common theme in card designs. This jester is "in" on the joke, or gives a signal to someone - a performance to amuse the King and court.

Ever see "The Sting"?

Some Jokers can't handle the pressure of being "wild" all the time. Unfortunately a few end up turning to coke to keep up the routine.

Poker players smell likeass and they're sick of it.
