In January 2014, I partnered again with illustrator Mark Stutzman, and we began designing the second deck in the Whispering Imps® series: The Gamesters.

In January 2015, the Standard Edition Gamesters were completely funded by over 500 backers on Kickstarter!  The Limited Edition Gamesters are the ultra-luxury version of that very same design and incorporates what very few decks have achieved...a revolutionary new technique of stamping Gold & Silver foils directly on to the backs of each playing card, a milestone set by the Expert Playing Card Co. last year. 

The Limited Edition Gamesters will be available in two versions:

BLACK & GOLD EDITION (Key Features)

• Black Back with Gold Foil "WI" Logos
• Traditionally Cut (preferred by professionals)
• Embossed Paper Stock with Premium Master Finish (for long lasting play)
• 2 Embossed Layers of Foil on the Tuck Box (Gold Foil & Black Foil)
• Limited to only 1000 Decks

RED & SILVER EDITION (Key Features)

• Red Back with Silver Foil "WI" Logos
• Traditionally Cut (preferred by professionals)
• Embossed Paper Stock with Premium Master Finish (for long lasting play)
• 2 Embossed Layers of Foil on the Tuck Box (Silver Foil & Black Foil)
• Limited to only 1000 Decks

The Tobacco Brown back design features two Twin Bucks enshrined within beautiful flourishes that mimic the lush forest of Yosemite National Park. The Ace of Spades features a noble Buck with herbaceous ornamentation crowning his dignified antlers, and each Joker offers the Antler name. The tuck case is letterpress printed on premium craft paper with foil accents and sculptural embossing.

Each deck handles beautifully, but we encourage you to embrace them as much for their superb handling as for the sense of adventure that they inspire. These are as perfect for formal performance as they are for an evening enjoyed around the campfire.

Precisely printed by The United States Playing Card Company with Dan and Dave's trademark thin stock, and a premium finish for superior handling.
