It is uncertain if time travel is physically possible, nevertheless, we welcome you to pre-Victorian, early 19th century, and the precisely restored two-pack set of "HODGES" Geographical & Astronomical NEW ROYAL PLAYING CARDS. Originally published by mysterious bookseller and stationer Charles Hodges of Portman Square, London in the year 1828, they reflect the times, His Majesty King George IV is depicted as King of Hearts alongside the first American president George Washington as King of Spades (Geographical deck).

In collaboration with the producer Will Roya at PlayingCardDecks.com, these decks were painstakingly digitally hand-restored by AZURED OX.

Great care was taken with regard to each detail, breathing fresh new life into these two historical decks. Together we strive to recreate beautiful but yet forgotten pieces of playing cards past and possibly bring them back to life. And finally, we are excited to share these absolutely renewed decks with everybody who would like or love them as much as we do.

The dreamer is the center of all dream experiences. When we are dreaming, we are often avatars of our woken selves. We manifest, occasionally, as specific personas and alter egos, but we are almost never aware of those manifestations when we are dreaming. We may look different, we may be of the opposite gender, we can be younger or older or we can be someone else. To the dreamer, the dream is reality. Lepidopterological musings aside, we have to agree with the Taoist allegory that it is sometimes hard to tell what is dream and what is reality.

Originally labeled as #9, Autobike is one of the most controversial decks in USPC history.  It has been documented that this deck was introduced in 1906 and discontinued in 1913, but no seriouos card collector has ever seen an original version of this back design in person.  Because of this, all seem to unversially agree this card back never actually went into production.

Released exclusively through Target.
