Portfolio52 proudly presents a series of custom poker size decks of playing cards designed with a touch of oddity by Stockholm17. The Odd Fellows are a care-free crew, unbothered by the norms of "functioning members of society". Come aboard and meet a couple of supremely odd characters, each with their own blend of cards and art packaged in personality that's almost too much for your eyes to handle. This project is the first official P52-branded project created as an ode to our love of playing cards. Join our crew in a celebration of the odd and reckless.

El Sapo Cubano features pearlescent bronze and lime green and white foiling across the barrel embossed case. 17 marks scratch across the top signifying the date of the launch and the number of Stockholm17. On the face of the deck is El Sapo himself with a custom diecut around his mouth to show the display card below with the edition # of the deck out of 888. This display card is a custom letterpressed card that is also signed by the artist.

El Sapo Cubano was a limited edition deck run out of 888 launched as a special release in the last 48 hours of the 2021 P52 campaign.

The custom illustrated court cards feature a wildly intoxicated bunch with custom illustrations for each individual pip. The back designs are also 100% custom to each deck in the Odd Fellows series while still maintaining a cohesive design to maintain integrity throughout.

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.

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.
