Grotesk Macabre is the evolution of "Grotesque", which was the UC2014 annual deck. Taking this deck as a starting point, I tried to create my own vision of the Underworld. Although a joyful and positive person myself, I had always been attracted to dark themed artwork. I find fascinating how artists throughout the centuries have imagined the world of the dead and how they dealt with the greatest fear of mankind. In Grotesk Macabre I tried to combine the darkest of all themes with the heavy elegance of baroque and the pointy, flamboyant Gothic art.

Boardwalk Papers by Alex Pandrea

Open a sealed pack of nostalgia with each new deck of Boardwalk Papers playing cards. With every shuffle, every cut, and every deal, you’ll find this deck harkening back to the days when fortunes were won or lost with the turn of a card, and Atlantic City held itself the capital of the Western World. Printed by The Expert Playing Card Company, Boardwalk Papers sport hand-drawn artwork and metallic foil embossings that reflect the golden age of the USA. You’ll quickly discover that much like the American spirit of yesteryear, they’re built to last.

 

NOTE - While sold and promoted by Dan & Dave, as well as other companies, this was actually put together by the The Blue Crown (Alex Pandrea).

Scans of each card can be seen at /www.marytcusack.com/maryc/decks/html/Cards/RomeAntony.html I've always been drawn to the rich colors, lavish outfits, influential & dramatic history, and the complex characters that make-up the backdrop of Ancient Rome. The ROME: Antony and Caesar pair of Decks will be printed by Legends Playing Cards Co. and focuses on the time periods of the First and Second Triumvirates of Rome's history. The First Triumvirate ended when Julius Caesar defeated Pompey the Great and became Dictator, before his assassination by members of the Senate. The Second Triumvirate ended when Octavian defeated Mark Antony & Cleopatra, and eventually became the first Emperor of Rome (and given the name Augustus).

Originally offered by Spicy Pickle Creative as a KickStarter project in June 2014, with a failed relaunch shortly after, the rights and artwork were purchased by Albino Dragon.  After 2 years of deliberation and almost being abandoned, it was finally successful in June 2016 with 272 backers who pledged $7,857.  

Pagan is easily one of the most popular poker decks in the Uusi playing card catalogue.  This deck flew out of our stuido. We stopped offering the Pagan deck to wholesalers 1 month after we received it and 1 year after it's release we have only a handful of the original Pagan decks left at our studio. We we felt this was the perfect occassoion to offer one last Limted Edition of this design. The LE Blue Pagan deck on this project will share the same courts as the original deck, but if funded we will be creating a new joker to join the first. The deck will also be further distinguished by a unique tuck box design that is similar to our tarot tuck.

Kings of India Playing Cards illustrates the four greatest dynasties of India to share the extravagance and beauty of India’s story. That’s a big ask for a deck of cards, so here’s how we're going to do it:

MARVELOUS ILLUSTRATIONS

Every inch of this deck has been custom-illustrated from scratch by our Montreal-based design studio, Humble Raja. We’re the same detail-obsessed duo from Apartment 4 design, so you can rest assured that we've even taken the time to draw chest hair.

SOLID RESEARCH

Each court card reveals the bold personality of a legendary monarch of India, his queen and future successor. We have consulted books, artifacts, documentaries, architecture and sculptures to exemplify their contribution to India’s story visually through the details and design of each character.

PREMIUM QUALITY

Kings of India will be professionally printed by the United States Playing Card Company [USPCC], the same makers of the Bicycle® and Bee® brand, casino-grade playing cards. This means exceptional quality used by the pros, all made in the USA.
