Capturing the elegance of Cherry blossoms, Hanami is the perfect deck of cards for any card enthusiast. Hanami features a simple yet captivating design. The soft palette compliments itself to create a bold display of color when in motion. The new gradient face design allows Cardists to constantly reinterpret Cardistry and discover new ways to flourish with both the faces and back of the deck. Printed with the new Luxury Stock and Legendary finish by the Hanson Chien Production Co. I can safely say that this is one of the best handling decks on the market.

The 2019 52 Plus Joker Club deck was introduced at the 52 Plus Joker Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina by designer Lotrek of Oath Playing Cards. Lotrek's decks have always been the hallmark of custom playing cards in the collector's arena since he and his workshop in Greece always push for innovations in card designing and printing. He has created several high-end decks such as Arabesque, Silk, Fable, Icons, Damask, Ambassador, Sanctus, Liturgy, etc. This year's club deck features his elaborate design with his iconic foiling paired with the techniques of Expert Playing Card Company, resulting in a marvelous combination of intricate craft and luxury. "The Entertainer" 2019 club deck is cold foil (Sage Green) + hot foil stamped (Gold) on the back design, and cold foil on the faces with rich coloring. This is by far the highest sought after edition in the 52 Plus Joker annual club deck lineup.

This deck was part of a launch exhibition on Saturday, December 14, 2019. "Kind Time" is collaboration card release between ANYONE and Japanese artist FACE OKA. More information about the event launch can be found here: http://www.ccommunee.com/anyonefaceex/

Foiled version of the Black Mass Deck. Printed on black stock with gold foil on the backs.

Printed on red stock, with black foil on the back, black and gold foil embellishments for the face cards.

Gold on Black version. Printed on white stock without black core -Black and Gold foil on the back of the cards, perfectly white sides, non-transluscent cards!

"Arabesque" is the second deck in the "Heritage series" which started with ICONS and is the first deck ever to feature:

• Extremely intricate Gold & Silver foil on both sides of each card, hot stamped over the printed artwork. This makes registration particularily difficult and it has never been attempted before.
• CMYK + metallic gold inks on both sides of the cards.
• Gold & Silver foil plus Embossing & Debossing for the tuck case, creating a unicue depth variation with an amazing effect in the light.
• Smooth handling despite the quantity of foil, making the deck perfectly playable.

In 2017, award winning GOLDEN OATH playing cards was released: The first deck ever printed exclusively with hot stamped foils, which now is almost impossible to find. Before the final printing Lotrek had printed a limited run of 50 prototype decks that are slightly different from the final version: The stock is embossed on the faces' side, the back design has a red border around the gold frame -which in the final version was gone- and the varnish is also different.

The decks are in a plain red stock tuck case, hand numbered and signed.

SILVER PLAYERS will be actually the Arabesque Blue Players edition deck with inverted metallics both on the faces and back. It will also have a double backer and inverted foils on the tuck case, which will be printed on silver pearlescent stock. Heh, we're talking about A LOT of silver!
