Good and Evil. Right and Wrong. Light and Darkness. Archangels. Inspired by mythology, crafted by hand, and ripped from the pages of legend, comes a new level of intricate design - the Archangel Playing Cards. Showcasing a battle of EPIC proportions. A juxtaposition of good and evil, the Archangels illustrate an epic battle of angels and demons. A close look at the back design reveals a tale of two opposing forces. The angels on the left, and the demons on the right - locked into an eternal stalemate. Six months of painstaking pen-and-ink illustration. The result? Simply epic. Archangels contain original artwork on the box, back design, Joker, and the Ace of Spades. Never before seen debossed ridges provide a unique feel that compliment the gold foil across the face and sides of the playing card box. Made in the USA at The United States Playing Card Company on top of the line quality papers, stock, and finish. Produced by theory11 and illustrated by Tom Lane in the United Kingdom. Eco Friendly. Archangels are printed on FSC-certified paper derived from sustainable forests, using vegetable-based inks and starch-based laminates.

Among the mythical characters of all times there is one that stands out for his strength and its courage: HERCULES. That’s the name received in the Roman mythology for Heracles, son of Zeus, the king of the gods, and the beautiful mortal Alcmena. He is, without a doubt, the most popular of the heroes in the Greek mythology. This deck depicts the most adventurous essence of the hero with fully customized cards beautifully illustrated by Blackout Brother. The designs are focused in one of the most popular and exciting episode of Hercules’ life: the Twelve Labors. Each one of the court cards represents one of these twelve labours carried out by the daredevil, from killing the Nemean Lion and taking its skin off to capturing Cerberus, the guardian of the Avernus & taken it out from the Underworld.

The Bicycle Ombre (Limited Edition and Numbered Seals) Playing Cards by U.S. Playing Card Co. is a striking example of timeless beauty. Only 2,500 limited edition decks were meticulously printed, then sealed with a custom NUMBERED seal. The gradual blend of blue to red on the deck's EDGES boldly peeks through the HAND GILDED pips on the side of the tuck case. The Ombre coloring resonates in the pips and numbers of each of the cards. 2 specially printed cards included. The embossed tuck case has highlights of silver foil on the face and side. The tuck back artfully reveals the card's Ombre colored backs. The UPC barcode playfully acknowledges the launch of the product at the Magic Live! Convention and pays homage to the Ombre look as well.

Funded as a Kickstarter project on July 22, 2014 with $53,355 pledged from 756 backers, this was ultimately a set of 6 decks, some with custom cards and some tuck swaps, plus uncut sheets and varied non-deck add ons. Using the 1920s-30s mobster era as inspiration, this USPCC deck series consists of the Gold and Silver decks, later followed by limited edition Cotton Club and Stork Club decks (1,500 each) which were tuck swaps and finally the limited editions of Empire and Kingpin (1,250 each) which were fully different decks (face cards, backs and tuck). While the decks were designed, submitted and copyright 2014 they were not printed or delivered until early 2015. This PCDB Entry is for the 1,500 limited edition Bicycle branded Stork Club deck. They featured the same cards as the standard gold/silver decks, but were in a different tuckbox (tuck swap) and also came with a similar themed coin which were also numbered and signed. Like the other limited decks in this series, they also used serialized seals on the decks. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/crookedkings/get-made-mob-themed-uspcc-bicycle-playing-card-dec/

No tuck has the right to feel this premium. Yet this most detailed of exteriors is the result of decades of playing card creative expertise, unswerving dedication to the art and craft of playing card design, and a single-minded use of only the finest materials.

Collectors, magicians, players and cardists who seek to make the ultimate statement of their class and quality shall surely find it here. For within the tuck is a deck hand-illustrated on linen stock with a supremely smooth coating that makes each card float across tables and glide during cardistry. There is strength coupled with the beauty, allowing the deck to take a step closer to the immortality each of us seeks.

Take time to admire the individual splendor and artistry of the 56 hand-illustrated cards. Each sports black and gold Renaissance style patterns on the reverse, tipping a nod to the past, yet with eyes firmly set on taking the fine art of playing card production into the future.

The attention to detail is immense, the embossed features adding another level of class and distinctiveness. Whether used to display or play, for magic or cardistry, this deck crafted by Elite and printed by the United States Playing Card Company is a limited-edition deck with unlimited powers to surprise, amaze and delight.

DESERT SHIELD The death cards made an appearance again during desert Storm. because the entire war was over in 100 hours there was no point in using them on the enemy. Instead, they were made up as calling cards and personal mementos of the units involved in the war. United States Playing Card has been making cards for the military for nearly a century, Remember those Vietnam-era images of soldiers tucking the Ace of Spades in their helmets? U.S. Playing Card made entire decks of the aces because they were believed to inspire fear among enemy fighters. Similar decks were reissued in Operation Desert Shield, but more as a tradition than as a psy-ops weapon. This is a standard Bicycle ace of spades produced by the company and shipped to the troops about to take part in the Persian Gulf War. It looks exactly like a standard playing card, except at the lower center they have printed the words "Desert Shield." Desert Shield was the name of the operation during the defensive phase of the war when the Coalition was building up its forces in Saudi Arabia. The operation was changed to Desert Storm when the Coalition went on the offensive. During the Vietnam War, the U.S, Playing Card Company produced entire decks of the Ace of Spades for combat troops in Vietnam. They were sent free of charge in a box called "Secret Weapon." Those decks were not marked Vietnam since this was never done before. During Operation Desert Shield, however, Bicycle again produced the decks in new packaging and typeface to distinguish the Vietnam and Desert Shield decks. The Desert Shield decks are clearly marked "Desert Shield." Again, these decks were supplied to U.S. troops free of charge. I don't think the card had the same significance as it did in Vietnam.
