The "OG" Federal 52 is an almost exact reproduction of the very first Kings Wild deck ever designed and produced. Until now the OG Federal 52 has never been reprinted and by most playing card collectors and enthusiasts are considered one of the cornerstones of the custom playing card world.

It is with great pride and excitement we have finally reprinted this very special deck to us and to many of the original supporters.

The OG Federal 52 was printed by The United States Playing Card Company.

The only changes we have made from the first edition are enlarged index numbers and letters to help with easier readability. Also, new custom plate IDs and serial numbers are on all of the court cards and aces.

The easiest way to tell the difference between the first print run from 2013 and the new print run is by looking at the bottom of the box. You will find a new add copy. Also, the new print run does NOT have a green seal with the Kings Wild logo.

On the back are flowers, floral scrolls, butterflies, peacock feathers, and angels holding mandolin (809). All 56 cards, with the standard BICYCLE style and watercolour rainbow pattern on the face and back, are extremely beautiful.

Bicycle® Rainbow V2 Playing Cards inherited the classic design of Bicycle , The front features a signature Bicycle logo and goddness with the the Ace of Spades as background.

You may find the similarity on some of the cards，but still different in details if you observe carefully.

Bicycle® Rainbow V2 Playing Cards uses dispersed watercolour as decoration for the back design , the flowability of watercolour makes the whole deck fresh , sweet , luxuriant , colorful and full of change.

It’s not the kind of typical rainbow deck , the tranditional one nearly just gathering various color backs into one deck.

My name is Jody Eklund and I'm pleased to introduce you to TITANS, The Robber Baron Edition. Titans are defined as "one that is gigantic in size or power: one that stands out for greatness of achievement." The men in this deck of cards were referred to as "Titans of Industry". For over three decades, the rise of new industries and technologies revolutionized the entire world. This made many men very wealthy and with their great achievements, came ruthless behavior an abuse of power. The capitalists of the late 19th century became know as "Robber Barons"

"Business leaders from about 1865 to 1900 were, on the whole, a set of ... rascals who habitually cheated and robbed investors and consumers, corrupted government, fought ruthlessly among themselves, and in general carried on predatory activities comparable to those of the robber barons of medieval Europe." ~ Hal Bridges

The kings and jacks depict those that build empires through ruthless means and the queens are women that spent their life's energy to liberate those oppressed in many ways. It's a story of juxtaposition; misuse of power and strength from weakness, oppression and liberation... This is Titans, these are the Robber Barons.

Private Reserve playing cards were first introduced in 2013 as a premium deck for Dan and Dave's professional and private use. Not available for sale, one could only obtain as a gift from the Twins or through various online promotions and giveaways. Long out of print, those decks now fetch several hundred dollars a piece on the resale market.

Several years later, in 2016, a new edition was introduced. Designed in collaboration with Jeff Trish, this new edition featured a gold foil back design, signed Ace of Spades, and a numbered seal limited to 2,500. This edition remains our most luxurious release to date as today we reveal a slightly stripped-down edition for both the collector and cardist.

Printed by the United States Playing Card Co. on our preferred thin stock and packaged in a green paper tuck box etched with gold foil accents. Wrapped in a numbered seal one through twenty-five hundred.

Limited Edition Gold-on-Gold

The box is just as breathtaking as the cards within it. For the first time, Monarchs are printed with gold foil on gold paper, deeply embossed and - now more than ever - truly fit for a king.

Gold Foil Card Backs

Unlike ANY other Playing Cards

For six months, we’ve been keeping one secret closely guarded. In collaboration with USPC, we began testing an experimental new process, for the first time applying gold foil DIRECTLY on the back of playing cards.

The cards are then processed with Bicycle’s most durable finish - resulting in a card that spreads, fans, shuffles, and tears just like a normal playing card. Based on research at USPC, they’re 400% more durable and 30% more flexible than any other foil application. Scratch them, twist them, tear them, bend them - the foil doesn’t come off.
