ABOUT THIS EDITION ----------------------------------------------------- During the production process, the USPCC sealed by hand the first 72 decks. After that, they made a mistake and the rest were sealed upside down. None of those 72 decks were sold and they are part of a private collection used only for specific promotions. They are easy to identify because the seal is in its usual position and the number is between 1 and 72. ------------------------------------------------------- Every detail has been taken care of to make this deck a realistic wood deck made of the best Bicycle paper stock printed by the United States Playing Card Company. The WOOD DECK is a reinterpretation by Max (www.maxplayingcards.com) of the classic Bicycle RIDER BACK deck, using a set of textures to give the cards a realistic wooden look. Main features: Printed by the United States Playing Card Company Bicycle branded Bicycle stock and Magic (air-cushion) finish Customized faces with wood theme Customized classic Rider Back in burned wood Custom and numbered deck seal for this first print run (future print runs won't be numbered) Subtle one-way cards with a two ways aspect Joker reveal Card reveal on tuck box Double-back gaffed card Motion feature on corner screws Embossed and inner printed tuck box Many features for magic routines

Professor Tate’s Traveling Roadshow appears in unexpected places and then vanishes without a trace. No one ever sees them come and go as they appear in cities and towns around the world.

Night after night, the show is never the same twice. Every audience is dealt a different hand as the performers appear in a new sequence. They improvise as they are invited to the stage by random shuffle. Round after round they light up the night weaving epic stories of skill, luck, daring, and intuition.

The gamblers, magicians, collectors, and other romantic souls who are called to discover Professor Tate’s Traveling Roadshow are forever changed by their experience.

When the sun comes up, the show is gone without a trace. The only proof that remains is this special deck of cards. Those who own them revisit the magic of that night whenever they shuffle and deal.

For the rest of their lives, they may revisit the Professor’s show, as every hand dealt tells a new story of triumph and defeat for those who are gathered to play.

When Max created the Metal Rider back, the first one in the TEXTURE SERIES, he wanted everyone could enjoy it. Planned to be a 2500 print run, it ended being a 5500 print run due to the high demand. The deck is completely sold out in retailers, available only from some secondary market sellers (for high prices). Max contacted a while ago to ask for a second print run but as far as the first one was numbered, we wanted to keep it as a one-print limited edition. He got really sad because although people claimed for more metal decks, he didn’t want to hurt our solid reputation so he decided to create another edition keeping the same essence of the original but doing some changes. After several tries with different options (Max confirmed that the MetalLux technology would lose all the texture in the back as you can’t print on the foil material and metallic inks wouldn’t give real bright to the cards), he decided to create a new color version of the back with a cool and deep blue that would not only keep the original as a limited deck but would give old and new backers the possibility to own an awesome deck.

Welcome to the very first deck by Magic Almendros and Almenvi Playing Cards in collaboration with Max Playing Cards. A new design dressed in deep red with a touch of gold. Welcome to Bicycle Luxury Keys. Legend has it that the rulers of four great neighboring kingdoms collected their taxes and kept them in a locked chest. To avoid looting, a sorcerer cast a spell on its lock and only three people from each kingdom, the king (K), the queen (Q) and the knight (J), were able to open that chest with magic keys created by the best goldsmiths. Inspired by the legend of the magic chest, the Luxury Keys deck reinterprets the Bicycle classic with an elegant and luxurious aspect full of exclusive details. The Aces show the keys of the four kingdoms, forged in indestructible steel, but decorated by the most delicate hands to create high jewelry work with a golden and shiny finish. The court cards have a classic style and a traditional scheme, but completely renewed, showing the protagonists of our history with their keys in hand. The numbered cards have been completely customized. Each pip has been redesigned with a touch of elegance but keeping a perfectly recognizable aspect that guarantees playability and usability in card magic effects. The two Jokers in the deck are different and play around with the story to reveal the coveted chest content. However, the hidden treasure are not coins or jewels, but a fantastic card revelation that will delight card magicians. The back shows us the haunted keyhole in a highly ornate and subtly asymmetrical design, another powerful tool for magic. The tuck case is a blend of elegance and luxury with a mysterious atmosphere in a color combination where red and gold stand out. Having magicians in mind again, like in other places in this unique deck, the flap includes a card reveal.
