Nexus can refer to a connection between ideas, objects, or places. It can also be the central, most important place or idea. Nexus playing cards explore the duality of this concept.

Designed by Max Bondarchuk, the Nexus deck has 100% custom artwork. The back design appears simple & traditional from a distance, but more details emerge when viewed up-close.

The linked circles in the design, astral elements, and other symbolism invite routines & presentations about connection, mysticism, and more - making this an ideal tool for mind-reading, mentalism, and cold-reading routines.

The faces use custom fonts, new pip designs & layouts on the number cards, and custom court card designs. Despite the customization, the faces maintain enough familiarity to be suitable for all tricks and games.

The box is made from a premium matte blue paper with all of the design work stamped in luxurious silver foil inside and out. The box is sealed with an individually-numbered foil stamp.

Nexus playing cards feature Penguin's exclusive UltraLux™ Finish and AquaFlow™ Coating. The casino-grade European card stock and perfect linen texture deliver a deck that handles like an absolute dream. The cards are traditionally cut with smooth edges that provide just the right amount of grip.

Printed with vegetable-based inks and water-based coating, the cards are planet-friendly as well! Nexus decks are soft enough to get to work straight out of the box, but durable enough to meet the needs of a full-time magician, cardist, or card sharp.

The desire to wield true magical powers is a wish as old as mankind itself. One of the most well-known stories about this fantasy is "Der Zauberlehrling", better known as The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Written by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and originally published in 1797, the story stands the test of time.

Exactly 225 years later, Penguin Magic is proud to present our tribute to the original poem, crafted into an ultra-limited deck of playing cards. Designed by Douglas Fuchs and art directed by Kevin Reylek, the entire deck is illustrated in a woodcut style.

Plaid designs have a rich history in the playing card world, with several patterns and colors being created for over 100 years. Michigan Plaid adds to the tradition with a stylized yellow & navy checkered plaid pattern, complete with a white border.

The deck uses Penguin's in-house standard faces & jokers, along with a custom Ace of Spades. The tuck box has a classically-styled design complete with inner printing for that perfect finishing touch. The package is topped off with an individually-numbered stamp-style seal.

Michigan Plaid playing cards are made using Penguin Magic's signature UltraLux™ Finish and AquaFlow™ Coating. These traditionally-cut cards are printed using vegetable-based inks on casino-grade European card stock. This means the cards shuffle, fan, and spread perfectly for all of your favorite games & tricks.
