The Red Artifice was originally created as an exclusive deck for use by Ellusionist artists and staff. Due to high public demand it instead became the first Limited deck offered for public sale. Of the 5000 decks printed, only 3000 were sold - the rest were held in reserve for gifts, prizes and promotions. These are genuine playing card sheets - pulled off the presses at the United States Playing Card Company before they had a chance to be cut and packaged in boxes. There are only a very few number of these sheets available.

MINT Playing Cards originally launched on on Kickstarter in 2016. The project was extremely well received and became one of the highest funded playing card projects ever. The Launch Editions decks have been completely sold out for over a year now. Fans of the cards have sent countless messages asking when they will be available again... NOW IS THE TIME. With your support, we can bring back a new and improved MINT with fresh new flavors! After months of planning and development, 52Kards is proud to present MINT 2 Fresh new flavors. (Blueberry MINT and Frost MINT) A refined card stock for optimal handling. (Crushed Casino Grade Bee Stock) Major improvements to the MINT Marking System. The back design pattern has been slightly expanded for a cleaner look THE BACK DESIGN Using a classical approach to design, MINT offers an aesthetic that is familiar, but fresh. The elegant repeating pattern evokes the decks that have survived the test of time. The face designs are mostly traditional. MINT is designed with magicians in mind, so standard face designs help make the cards look relatable and innocent. Classic court card designs with a modern touch of MINT. A beautiful Ace of Spades. THE CARD QUALITY The quality of the cards is of upmost importance. MINT 2 will be printed by the renowned United States Playing Card Company with precise specifications and the highest quality standards possible. The cards will handle like a dream :) THE MINT MARKING SYSTEM The MINT design includes an ingenious marking system that allows you to read the identity of the card by looking at the back design. Magicians can take advantage of this clever feature. (Please use responsibly!!!) THE TUCK CASE A preview of the Original MINT tuck case. The MINT 2 Packaging will be just as good if not better.

In 1876 legendary cowboy and gambler Wild Bill Hickok was playing cards in Deadwood, Dakota Territory. He was shot in the back before he could play his hand... and legend has it that he held Aces and Eights: The Dead Man's Hand.

We celebrate the legacy of Wild Bill Hickok and the gambling lore of the Wild West with The Dead Man's Deck. This beautiful deck is filled with details surrounding Wild Bill and his storied past. The deck's design is true to the time period, with an ornate, grey pattern and old-style faces. And of course, the Aces and Eights are, well, bloody.

The defining feature of this deck, though, is that it has a bullet hole shot right through the middle of it, along with a commemorative musket ball lodged in the hole. Every deck comes with this musket ball and a scorched bullet hole through the entire deck.

Printed by the Expert Playing Card Company. Featuring a custom seal.
