We are proud to introduce the Black Lions Blue Edition, printed on the highest-quality stock the United States Playing Card Company offers.

Our soft-touch box features a metallic blue finish and silver foil stamping on top of a fuly detailed quality embossing.  Each deck contains a number of hidden features that are greatly enhanced by the new design.

Limited Edition Gold-on-Gold

The box is just as breathtaking as the cards within it. For the first time, Monarchs are printed with gold foil on gold paper, deeply embossed and - now more than ever - truly fit for a king.

 

Gold Foil Card Backs

Unlike ANY other Playing Cards

For six months, we’ve been keeping one secret closely guarded. In collaboration with USPC, we began testing an experimental new process, for the first time applying gold foil DIRECTLY on the back of playing cards.

The cards are then processed with Bicycle’s most durable finish - resulting in a card that spreads, fans, shuffles, and tears just like a normal playing card. Based on research at USPC, they’re 400% more durable and 30% more flexible than any other foil application. Scratch them, twist them, tear them, bend them - the foil doesn’t come off.

Vaudeville Deck (Act I) : Paying tribute to a bygone era! Some of the world’s most talented and influential magicians came out of the Vaudeville era. It was a time of creativity and variety that captured the imaginations of audiences around the world.

Designed from the ground up over the course of 10 months, the Vaudeville Deck features 100% custom artwork that pays tribute to the great magicians of yesteryear. The faces have an aged, vintage look, with each King being modeled after a famous Vaudeville-era magician. The Jacks and Queens pay tribute to antique fashion styles. Even the pips have been created from scratch with a stylish curtain theme! The crystal ball from the back design is seamlessly integrated into the Ace of Spades, which has an intricate and ornate design that’s reminiscent of a fine antique. The tuck case is a work of art by itself, featuring our custom Vaudeville logo, an eye-popping color scheme, precise embossing, and gold foil accents. - 100% custom artwork - Bright and vibrant design - Kings modeled after Houdini, Thurston, Carter, and Alexander - Premium stock and finish - Bonus double-backed reveal card

Once Upon A Time is a deck of beautifully crafted custom playing cards. Designed by Marilen Adrover and printed by the United States Playing Card Company.

Inspired by the classic fairy tale characters that we all love, the Once Upon A Time deck of playing cards takes a darker look at an old story. Re-examined through the eyes of an adult, each suit weaves together tales of misbehavior, misconduct, and general mischievousness. These aren't the same bedtime stories your mother told you!

A time before the United States existed, a time when we were subjects of a King across an ocean. The Sons of Liberty operated in the shadows, leaving secret signals, passing hidden messages, and meeting in the dead of night. However, people soon rallied with them, and their cause to resist British oppression quickly spread throughout the colonies.

 

These playing cards embody the spirit of freedom that the Sons of Liberty fought for, featuring Freemason symbols, the Liberty Tree, and many other secret images. A few of the many heroes of the War are represented on the court cards, giving you a chance to become acquainted with some of the brave men and women who risked their lives for our freedom.

Flesh & Bones is a custom, hand illustrated deck of playing cards, designed in London by Dual Originals and produced by DeckStarter. Each card has been rigorously designed to create a unique deck that combines digital precision with illustrative flair.

Designers, Chris and Marylou have always had a passion for the weird and wonderful and wanted to express their take on it through this deck.

Designed for those who venture onward and live adventurously. Illustrated by 1924US in collaboration with adventure brand, Bradley Mountain In each pack you’ll enjoy custom designed woodland court-cards amidst hand-lettered spot cards, each laid against a charcoal background and precisely printed by the US Playing Card Co.

Kings Wild Emerald Talley-ho Limited Edition Deck

Tally Ho is a brand that is more than 100 years old and it is my privilege to create my third Tally Ho deck. The Emerald Tally Ho deck is the second deck in my my limited edition Tally Ho series. The first deck, the Scarlett Tally Ho, was inspired by my youngest daughter who is also named Scarlett. The Emerald Tally Ho deck is inspired by my oldest daughter Claire. The Emerald theme comes from Claire's birthstone. Starting with the same basic design structure, as the Scarlett Tally Hos, the Emerald has a completely redesigned back and tuck. The same limited edition courts have been used with new design and color styles to match the new Emerald theme.

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.

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.
