Come one, come all!! Gather around to see the cure for what ails you!

The Snake Oil Elixir Deck is a nod to the Snake Oil Salesmen and Miracle Elixir Ads from the late 1800's. It's printed by the United States Playing Card Co. and utilizes their amazing Magic Finish. The Snake Oil Elixir Deck is designed by Randy Butterfield (Midnight Cards) and produced by The Blue Crown.

The Tuck Box features Pen & Ink drawings of an old-school Con Man / Snake Oil Salesman and a menacing Snake. The overall Tuck design is reminiscent of old Snake Oil Elixir Ads, including over-the-top quotes such as "The Greatest Playing Cards on Earth!" and "The Saviour of the Human Race".

The Back Card features a borderless Snakeskin pattern that is subtly asymmetrical in the center area. The semi-custom Face Cards incorporate Arrco Courts and look like they're from the late 1800's. The Ace of Spades includes the Pen & Ink Con Man and Snake drawings. The two unique Jokers complete the look with their Snake Oil Elixir Ad designs.

The Snake Oil Elixir Deck is "Guaranteed to Cure all your Cardistry, Magic & Gaming Ailments!"

"A lie told often enough becomes the truth."

Truth and Lies Playing Cards represents the dual nature of deception and honesty. They are two sides of the same coin, both interwoven deeply within every magic trick. A parade of ornate lies are what spectators are driven to see, while the bare and unembellished truth is ignored and often hidden in plain sight.

Art directed and conceived by Jason Brumbalow and masterfully illustrated by Bobby Haiqalsyah and Lance Miller, Truth and Lies Playing Cards was crafted to remind us of the Lies we share, the Truths we bury, and the duality of both. These playing cards strike the balance between two forces and combines them into a collectible set that blends one design into the next.

You'll be thrilled with the three different versions of Truth decks (each deck having a different embossed phrase on the tuck case), and three different versions of Lies decks (again, each deck having a different embossed phrase on the tuck case). The embossed phrase illustrates that the distinction between truth and lies may not be as clear-cut as you'd think! Your spectators will be fascinated with these decks.

Sometimes the truth is just the lie we tell ourselves, but sometimes true magic can be found in the lies we tell others. Murphy's Magic is proud to present Truth and Lies Playing Cards.

The Mongolian Deck is part of the World Tour Set series of playing cards.

This is everyone's favorite design. Modeled after a "Peace" symbol we located on a piece of antique Mongolian furniture, this deck's simplicity and color palette have made it a favorite amongst collectors, and the most requested back design that Vanishing Inc. has ever created.

More about the World Tour Set...

The World Tour Deck Set is a presentation "trunk" of five bespoke packs of playing cards, each highlighting a different country and culture from the turn of the last century. The World Tour Deck Set is housed in a miniature travel trunk, replete with decals from the far-off places to which the cards have traveled, to be in your collection.

The set comes with all five decks of cards in the series, and when all five decks are lined up, they create a map of the world highlighting the five featured countries: France, Switzerland, Mongolia, China, and Egypt.

But the World Tour Deck Set is more than just a trunk of playing cards: it's a story. The Great Ezra, a turn-of-the-century magician, traveled the globe and sent these decks back to you, each one with a note. All the ephemera: handwritten notes written on railcar stationery, coasters, tickets, and hotel paper... are included, to help immerse you in the spirit of the turn of the century, and how Ezra might have obtained each special deck.

The decks themselves are gorgeous, with iconography and hidden elements from the countries, culture, and time from which they've come. All printed by the Expert Playing Card Company, the cards have a durable, smooth finish ideal for shift work, gambling material, and sleights. Each deck has an extremely limited run of 1500 decks, and no more World Tour Deck Sets will ever be printed.

Intaglio is a series of prints & playing cards derived from hand engraved copper printing plates printed in the traditional Intaglio style in a collaboration between Kings Wild Project and Thornwillow Press in New York. Intaglio printing for playing card art has not been used for centuries. There were 3 versions/colors of the deck produced: red, blue and black (which was a KickStarter exclusive).

Kickstarter 2014 project by Jody Eklund. 3 decks have been printed: Golden Spike, limited Gold Edition and very limited Black Ink edition.  The Bicycle branded version was produced by USPCC, but the Black Ink and Golden Spike (Gold) versions were printed by Legends.
