Papilio Ulysses V3 Playing Cards (printed by US Playing Card Company) encourages all who hold this amazing deck to experience its beauty and "Alis volat propriis" - Fly with your own wings. When in flight, the female Ulysses butterfly can be seen hundreds of meters away as sudden bright blue flashes. In honor of this phenomenon, metallic blue and gold ink is strategically speckled throughout the deck on the tuck case, card backs, court cards and Jokers. The value and quality of Papilio Ulysses Playing Cards is undeniable. Every card was thoughtfully modified to represent the stages of metamorphosis and flight. Each of the court cards are customized with royal beauty and class. The numbered cards delightfully include a customized pip, while retaining the familiar design of the key indices. The simple white and metallic blue tuck case cocoons the beauty and the unique color of the deck inside. The tuck also fittingly includes a prediction element for magicians.

At the end of each quarter, all Forest deck profits will be sent to onetreeplanted.org. (501(c)3 tax-exempt organization) Our goal is to plant 25,000 trees with this first edition. Ice core data from Greenland and Antarctica show a steady natural increase and decrease of CO2 ppm levels throughout the last 800,000 years. In around 1950 we reached a level of atmospheric CO2 that hasn't been seen since before humans walked the planet. Since then, we've added an extra 24% to that mark. A 24% jump usually takes about 25-60 thousand years to happen naturally, we did it in 68 years. This is causing a chain reaction of global events. One of those chain reactions bring drier weather, droughts in woodland areas, less cloud cover, and longer/stronger fire seasons. Trees create more low clouds and low clouds help keep the planet cooler as it reflects energy from the sun, while higher clouds increase the heat. Trees are also are our natural line of defense against CO2 buildup and we keep losing more and more trees. Join us in our fight to improve the living quality of our planet. This is the only home we've ever known, it's up to us to take care of it. Humans have always needed trees and right now they need us too. We've made shipping slightly less expensive for bricks and higher. So if you were already planning on buying 10, buy 2 more and save yourself some money on shipping.

Red variant of Theory 11's High Victorian Playing Cards. The back design is also color-shifted to red. With standard High Victorian seal.

Every single playing card within the High Victorian deck was designed from scratch - even the Aces, Jokers, and court cards exude the grand excess of ornamentation quintessential to the Victorian era. In a word: breathtaking. This variation comes with a theory11 2017 seal rather than than the standard High Victorian Seal

Diamon Playing Cards are back with a brand-new deck! Nº12: Sunset Edition is here to give your card game an update this summer and fall. Following the very successful black & white design of Nº10, this all-new deck features rich bright orange and blue hues. Nº12, as we’d like to call it, will be brighter and bolder than any deck we have released before! This time the design is composed of colours ranging from bumblebee yellow to marmalade orange and from ocean to Prussian blue. These vivid colours stand out incredibly well and are sure to enhance your fans, displays, flourishes, and shuffles! A must-have for every Cardist, Collector and Cardician. Nº12 was created with the same diamond pattern you know and love from all our other decks. It features our typical and famous border-bleeding diamond on the back design and face cards. Like our first deck Nº2, it is ocean blue, allowing for awesome spreads and fans!

Inspired by Sirius B, which is the brightest star in our night sky. The wave design on the deck is a representation of the various rays that travel throughout the universe, such as the light we see, and all the surroundings of the galaxy. The gradient of colors is an embodiment of a celestial vision. They're all pointed 60 degrees to the right, an indication of Sirius B's location relative to Earth. The exterior of the deck is designed in such a manner that you can place three decks in a specific way to display a very cool form. Where you would open the case, you'll find a line of text on the flap: "made on Earth by humans." When this deck is on its way drifting in space, I want the one who gets their hands on this to know whom the proud creators of the deck are!

Welcome back guys! Chris here. Welcome to the seventh edition. Orbits are going 80's. For this edition, the crew and I sat down and reviewed a lot of 80's art to come to this final design. We missed clean borders and wanted something more minimal than the V6 but still with the element of intricacy within some part of it. The V7 features a pink dominant center along with the mountain range from the V5 Orbits that are now inverted, so they are a window to what's behind the card rather than the original mountains. Upon close inspection, constellations can be seen in the star belt.The rainbow at the bottom of the box inside the Orbit logo is a direct tribute to the lives lost in the 1986 space shuttle Challenger on their mission STS-51-L. The last names of the crew can be found on the inside of the V7 tuck because those who gave their lives for space exploration should never be forgotten. NASA halted missions for 2 years after the tragedy but when they came back, the mission patches had a rainbow in the center to signify life along with 7 orange stars to remember the 7 lives lost. Gregory Jarvis, Christa McAuliffe, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka, Judith Resnik, Michael Smith, and Dick Scobee. The rainbow was saying that NASA is back and alive but will carry the life of their fallen astronauts. It is a beautiful tribute to the lives lost in 1986. We're doing our part to ensure their legacy lives on. Pips and indices. I knew I wanted a retro design that people would have been using in the 80's. I asked USPC if they had the retro Arrco pip package. Their archives didn't go back that far. Luckily, I have a retro Arrco deck in my private collection from the 70's that Nick Stumphauzer gave to me as a gift -- it was found in his grandparent's attic. Holly scanned over the cards, we sent them to Daniel, and he did the rest. If you look closely at the pips and indices, you'll see that they are a bit thinner than previous Orbit pip packages (that are also Arrco) and look a little wavy. This was not an accident. I wanted to capture the essence of a 70's deck that would have been used in the 80's, imperfections and all. You won't find another deck in this millennia with this retro pip package. The red has been replaced with pink on the V7's for an extra eye-catching aesthetic. New Court faces. We have added 3 new faces. The Queen of Clubs is my childhood best friend's mom, Nancy. I've known her since I was 11 and she is like a second mom to me. The King of Clubs is her husband, Matt (Big Matt). They have been there for me during some pretty important moments in my life and have guided me through some tough times. They deserve to be here in the deck. The final card is the King of Spades, none other than my mentor in magic, John Bodine. John has kept me headed in the right direction in my magic career, is a life mentor to me, and even invested in the my website to get it up on its own two feet back in 2012. Not sure I'd be where I am today without him in my corner.

Faunae (pl. fauna) are the non-human (animal) beings with whom we share our world. Each species is completely varied and unique, and within each species, the beings are as diverse as humans. By observing and interacting with the faunae around us, we can gain a better understanding of ourselves, the roles we each play, and our connection to all life. In this way, faunae can serve as archetypes for humanity. This deck comes in 2 editions. The Vibrant Edition shows the vivid and bright side of nature that wishes to be seen - the sunny days, full foliage, and active faunae. The Veiled Edition represents the parts of nature that wish to remain hidden and unseen - the mystery of nature, mists, and the other worlds that lie just beyond the veil. Printed by the USPCC with the same quality and attention to detail as our previous decks. Printed on premium USPCC card stock Classic Air-Cushion finish for ease of shuffling and optimum performance Custom illustrations by Jon Carraher on all of the Court cards, back card, and Jokers as well as custom pip illustrations for the numbered cards.

Gold thread around tuck box marks v2 and clear thread is v1

In 2011, we released the original Monarchs. They quickly became our best-selling deck, and they ushered in a new standard for luxury playing cards. Soon after, we dressed them in red. Monarchs are back in a new print edition, with a much more vivid, vibrant red box.

Red Monarchs are Made in the USA on FSC-certified paper derived from sustainable forests. Printed on Q1 quality stock with our signature Premium 909 Finish.

We spent time refining the world’s finest deck. It turned out better than we could ever imagine. We treated the back design with a vibrant, dramatic shade of red. For the tuck case, we worked alongside our print team to take an existing soft-touch paper and then darkened the tone while maintaining the vibrance of the red color.

The goal was to make playing cards fit for a king. The world’s finest. Regal. We feel one step closer to accomplishing that mission than ever before. We know you’re going to love them. In stock and available for immediate shipping.

The Green Monarch box is uniquely composed of two layers - it’s the most durable tuck case we’ve ever made. Monarch playing cards are Made in the USA on FSC-certified paper derived from sustainable forests. The cards themselves are printed with vegetable-based inks.

Version One: First Printing- Thick gold band around deck.
