A timeless, classic design - masterfully updated. We are now proud to offer the first ever METALLIC deck of Bicycle® playing cards. Your favorite cards, fully optimized and transformed into something you have never seen before. Bicycle® playing cards have been the industry standard for over a century. Originally unveiled in the late 19th century, their reputation for quality and universal appeal is without equal. They have been and will continue to be the premiere choice for card enthusiasts around the world. The Bicycle Titanium Edition v2 is a special edition series based on the traditional Rider Back design. It was our intention to remain as faithful as possible to the original design while using a proprietary blend of metallic inks. The back design, the box, and even the court cards utilize metallic inks that radiate light in a subtle, elegant manner. The box has metallic foil on five sides, showcasing the original Rider Back design that you know and love. Available in two colors - Steel Blue and Crimson Red - the Bicycle Titanium Edition playing cards were printed at the United States Playing Card Company using the finest quality stock and finish. They feel smooth - not too rigid - right out of the box. What's new in the v2? This new edition features embossed, raised lettering on the tuck case, and metallic foil accents.
