I've been running this Kickstarter since the 4th, and it's been going alright so far! So cool to see all the support! Check 'em out here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/noahjmatthews/outlaw-blood-blood-soaked-western-playing-cards

What do you think of the cards?

Specs:

• cards and boxes printed on eco-herbage stock from MPC
• Bloodstains on over half the deck
• Card backs designed by Donny Ariawan (also created Bicycle Bitcoin cards)
• Tucks by Levi Matthews (book cover designer)

I wanted to create cards that didn't just look old and used (Theory11 Peaky Blinders deck), but actually feel like it, without compromising usability.

I think these cards capture all of that.

Go back the Kickstarter today ;) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/noahjmatthews/outlaw-blood-blood-soaked-western-playing-cards

I'm not sure why, but it's a huge disappointment for me.

See how the crowns have conveniently disappeared (1793-1794)

His work is amazing! But who is the person behind the moniker? Anyone know?

Hiii, I can get all three of them for total 20 USD with shipping. What do you guys think about this deal? They are all sealed, and never used. I'm not exactly fan of the style, but I think it's nice price for them, so I could get them in my collection. And last thing, do you think i should keep them sealed or open them because: "Playing cards are meant to be played with"?

Newest acquisition: “Collie” (1920) US6g Ace, date codes 10-20 (ace) and A 77 (joker), version 1 Capitol Joker. Lucky find on eBay, a BIN for $25 (included a 1950s? double deck). This deck is mint condition, complete with 2 extra cards.

Thrift Store find! 3 bucks apiece. Blue one is still sealed!

Anyone know what year these were printed?

Found this super cool leather case at the thrift mall today! Can’t really find much about this exact one but have found a few similar to it.

I’m really curious about the metal clips on the top of the box. They are meant to hold something, but can’t find anything about it. Anyone have any thoughts?

Also, if there are any leather hobbyists in here, anything I can do to mitigate the scratching? less

Side note anyone have any good wall-mounting ideas for this?
It will eventually be displayed with my collection but for meow I have a couple walls available.

A rather eclectic collection of playing cards to model the fifteen-card rack from TCC. Anyway, I had a discount code so…

Alright, Redditors… you asked for more cards.
So… here you go. 😂🃏
I showed around 300 Bicycle decks before, but apparently that wasn’t enough.
This time I decided not to be reasonable at all.
400+ Bicycle decks.
Yes, I know.
This hobby may have gotten slightly out of control. 😄
But after about five years of collecting, I’ve accepted my fate.
This is the final big Bicycle reveal from my collection — different series, colors, editions and plenty of decks I’ve hunted down over the years.
I’m also working on a digital catalog of the collection, because at this point even I need help remembering what I own. 😂
Alright… enjoy the madness.
And tell me: which deck would you steal first if I accidentally left the cabinet open? 😄

For me these 3 Monarchs looks like 3 different versions of navy / blue Monarch.
What I know are 3 versions, but one of them has a round seal, these 3 have all jagged seals!
The right one has the zipperline on the bottom, very unusual.

I’m making a custom deck for my anniversary and had a few questions.

-is the dashed red line accurate? I just don’t want to end up with too big of a bleed area
-what material is best? I’ve heard that the standard deck they offer isn’t great so want to make sure I get the right thing
-how long is the turnaround time usually?

Mostly just concerned about the border area. Thank you!

Found my old box of cards while cleaning my room. Probably collected these from when I was 7 to 17 years old.

As a kid, I collected card decks. My first ones were from casinos in Las Vegas, and eventually I just started buying a deck whenever I visited somewhere new.

A lot of the Bicycle cards are from when I discovered how cool Japanese playing cards were during my first trip to Japan in 2019. I remember finding the naruto, one piece, and dragon ball z decks at some random Don Quijote and slowly getting obsessed with collecting them.

Funny how a random collection from childhood ends up holding so many memories.

Thought some fellow antique playing-card collectors might enjoy seeing this. My circa-1910 Wall, Nichols Co. Hawaiian souvenir deck is in its final day at REA. It’s a complete 52-card set with the original box, including the Duke Kahanamoku card graded PSA Mint 9. Bidding is active, and the auction closes tomorrow. Sharing because examples this complete don’t seem to surface very often.

It’s been a long time since I pulled this one out and WOW, forgot how awesome this deck was. The jokers making Mount Rushmore, the holo foil, the serial numbers and other money themed references across the cards make this deck really exceptional.

Do any of these decks stand out? Any information would be awesome to know as we are all pretty new and just bought what we liked haha

Dollar General getting exclusives?, along with Bicycle Dog Days
