This is the new USPC version of the US Presidents Bicycle decks designed by Johnny Whaam. Now featuring a pearl finish and embossed tuck case with a new seal.

Funded as a Kickstarter project on February 13, 2015 with $21,692 USD pledged from 589 backers, this was the first in a series of decks featuring the US military.  This deck had a US Army theme and was designed by Jackson Robinson through Kings Wild Project through a collaboration with Nomades Collection (license holder for 'US Army'), with a total of 3,000 decks printed. The tuck was printed with 4 color process, inside and out, on premium vellum stock by the United States Playing Card Company.  The cards were also printed by USPCC, using the same 4 color process on Bicycle Paper Stock with a Embossed finish, with each face card depicting a servicemen or servicewoman in a period correct uniform, helicopters as Aces (with exception of special tribute AoS) and tanks as Jokers. Unique to this deck was instead of using famous military heros, the court cards featured relatives of the Kickstarter backers, or backers themselves, who served in the US Army.  Name of persons featured:

• Jack of Hearts - Gary Lee Steffenhagen
• Jack of Diamonds - LTC William Lee Nichols

Pips are the suit symbols on the card face - the spade, heart, diamond or club indicators. In addition to this standard element each Pipmen card has little stickmen figures interacting with the pips to create a unique scene. So Pipmen are the Pip-men! Get it?

The OCULUS Deck is inspired by Pointillism. It features a full-bleed borderless design with bold and vibrant Reds and Blues. The Court Cards each have a radial design structure that gives them an abstract, yet familiar, look to them. The design is also meant to flow through flourishes and allow for continuous displays that aren't possible with borders. In addition to allowing for table displays as well.

Axis is a deck of cards inspired by Neo-Tokyo design, flipbook artwork and colors commonly associated with 90's and early 2000's spy movie artwork, such as The Matrix.

Not only is Axis a deck of cards with a unique approach to design and conceptualism, it's a deck of cards with a twist. Literally.

When designing Axis, we had to make sure we executed the conceptual part of the design in a way that wouldn't take away from the overall smoothness of the deck in motion.

The concept is simple: create a deck that when riffled through can rotate a globe 360 degrees, representing the full rotation of earth in a complete year. In executing this, we mixed the conceptual part of the deck with the actual design. Flaunting a Neo-Tokyo esq design, with a bright green and deep blue contrasting color palette, Axis brings a flashy concept to life with a completed and styled back design.

Manufactured by USPCC, this unbranded deck reportedly was in development for 5 years with 3 designers working together before Ellusionist released it in 2009 as the first in their new line of signature playing cards. This is the white version of the Arcane deck, but there was also a black version, as well as a rare red and gold ones (variations of the black). The deck was designed for magic and cardistry use by the use of the unique back design and custom jokers plus gaff card, in addition to standard game play. Many may consider the unique jokers the most interesting component from a collector perspective. The courts feature variations of standard courts with modified outfits and smokey/faded look. The tuck also claims to feature the first use of a wraparound design. Per playingcards.wikidot.com, they are printed on \\\\\\\"Aurora\\\\\\\"" stock

Ad copy: "Rockets are a taste of nostalgia. A deck of cards born from a world of pure imagination. Styled from the famous frozen treat, Rockets look just as tasty in your hand. The back design is simple, imperfect and fun. Adding boldness back into your card handling." Notes: The deck comes with two identical jokers, a double backer and an additional 9 of spades.

WARNING! Please keep your eyes and hands inside the vehicle at all times. Enjoy the ride.

Little Deck Of Horrors is a celebration of the nostalgically scary “Ghost Train” with faces haunted by ghouls, goblins and ghosts. For those brave enough to “admit one”, Horrors becomes a whimsical ride through time, visiting the evil characters of our childhood.

The deck captures the glow of neon fairground lights, as they dart sharply across the back design, completed with a kaleidoscope of skulls. The cards themselves have been carefully tested for optimum durability and are printed on Cartamundi’s now famous B9 finish and stock. Some myths ARE real, so if you’ve never tried it, you’re missing out.

If you can ever put the deck down, it goes kicking and screaming into a side-loading tuck case. Trapped momentarily in a smooth gloss coffin until its next outing.

Take the ride… if you dare.

Side tuck open.

Killer Bees are the mutant hybrid of timid European honey bees and their African cousins.  Like all superhero stories, the Killers were introduced to Brazil by mad scientists to help re-populate their diminishing Bee population.  But no-one could contain them... In 1957, 26 swarms escaped quarantine and declared war on the western hemisphere.  Danger lurking in the skies, these villains will stalk their victims for up to 1/2 a mile..  We wanted to capture the darker bodies of these cold-face killers in our deck. Creating a harsh black back with toxic-waste yellow honeycomb spilt on the back.  The black faces display custom pips and hold a sinister simplicity. Like something you'd expect to see on a discarded barrel of methylamine.  Killer Bees are the result of an unsanctioned lab experiment when toxic-waste spilled into a delicate hive of Honey Bees.

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

The box is the main feature of this deck, with silver foil and a classic art deco design. The cards have a simple floral pattern that is neither flashy nor boring, but would blend in the sort of turn-of-the-century cafe magicians and card players would patronize during the period.

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.

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

This back design is understated and two-color, with appearances by camels and the great pyramids. It is quite similar to card designs one would see on caravan rides that transported the earliest Egyptologists from Cairo to the Valley of the Kings.

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.
