2020 DOTY Award Nominee: 'Best Rookie Deck'
According to Irish legend, if you are lucky enough to capture a Leprechaun you can barter for his treasure. As a child I was fascinated by these little men that stand about as tall as a three-year-old, pinch you if you don’t wear green on St Patrick’s Day and hide gold at the end of rainbows. I have wanted to create a deck based upon this legend for quite a while. One day while talking to my friend and Artist Brad Gabbard or Native Tongue Studio, I ran the idea by him. Over the next several months he designed and redesigned many backs and court card combinations until he was finally able to come up with the perfect combination of both.
We wanted a deck that would appeal to cardists, magicians and collectors. To achieve this goal, we did the following:
Fully Custom St. Patrick’s Day themed court feature along with a beautiful custom AOS and Identical Jokers. Clover pips are used in place of Clubs, as well as unique metallic gold and metallic green suits rather than traditional black and red.
A number of additional secrets are hidden throughout the deck. The more of them you find, the more “lucky” you can make this deck for yourself…
The cards in all editions will be printed by USPCC using the finest traditionally cut crushed stock and finish in the industry. Metallic gold and green inks will feature throughout, including the courts.
