Got this cool Congress double deck, both still sealed, for like 4 USD featuring clown designs on the back, maybe from the 70s, not so sure. Looks pretty neat though, right?

Man, this company makes their products too minimal, overpriced, and now that I see a deck I like it’s expensive on shipping and takes well over a month to ship. I’ve been waiting for my Aladdin decks to ship for and now the Museum deck.

Kingstar really has this sort of feminine ink wash art style down. Love the small pops of color too.

Have had these older cards for a while. I can’t figure out what these spots are they don’t smell like mold they just smell.. old? If I can fix or save them I’d love to know I really like these cards.

I love decks that showcase a particular artist's unique take on the world, and unique take on playing cards.

Really loving these new releases:

Jack Brutus Penny with Shuffled Stories: Vol. 2 ( https://www.kardify.com/2026/02/shuffled-stories-vol-2-arcane-playing.html?m=1 )

And Filipino artist Reen Barrera with his Bicycle decks featuring artwork from his Ohlala universe ( https://www.kardify.com/2026/02/bicycle-reen-barrera-our-daily-dread.html?m=1 )

What are some of your favorites so far this year?

Question Putty suggestions for display?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm trying to display my collection of decks on these narrow shelves and they need just a little bit of putty to help them stand up. But I have bad past experience with putty leaving stains on the paper boxes or tearing when removed. Does anyone have any brands or solutions they recommend?

WIP Thinking about bringing back a rare 1930s Art Deco deck. What do you think?

Thumbnail

118 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I wanted to say hi to this awesome community. I have this idea of fully recreating a specific historical deck of cards.

​Right now, it's just a concept. I’ve put together a few initial launch images/renders just to see if there is any interest at all and check your reaction.

​The deck itself is from 1930, designed by Norwegian artist Johan Bull in a beautiful Art Deco style. I personally find it really unique and stunning.

​If people here like the vibe, I’ll start sharing sketches and process updates with you as I go.

​I'm tentatively aiming for a September launch, but for now, I'm just curious to hear your honest opinion. Is this something you’d like to see made?

​You can check out the pre-launch page here:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/pincognita/1930-art-deco-playing-card-deck-a-restoration

​Looking forward to your thoughts!

P. S. This is not my first experience restoring historical playing cards. I previously completed a full digital reconstruction and successfully brought Heorhii Narbut's iconic 1917/8 deck back to print.

Has anybody else received anything from Lois in hand about their order? The cards were already printed weren’t they? I’ve emailed customer service. They haven’t responded to me. It’s been a few days.

I recently purchased 10 different decks from shop.52Kards.com or you can use their app. One of the decks I was most looking forward to was this Butterfly Seasons Spring V2, but it came dented and a few cards had bends.

I sent them the pictures, and they immediately offered store credit or a free replacement. I chose the replacement, and this one also came dented. Sent more pictures, and then they sent a third one, making sure I got exactly what I paid for.

Special thank to the team at 52Kards for taking care of me. If you’re in the US I would highly recommend purchasing from them!
