Description from Club 808 store:

To continue further testing for our new premium foil decks, Bicycle® layered ink and metal in one complex design to bring you an enhanced version of Bicycle® Espionage. With quality in mind, we were able to achieve a product that has unprecedented light reflection characteristics, beautiful color-tone, no flake durability, and the same quality properties as Bicycle® products are known for – printed on premium cardstock with the brand’s classic air-cushion finish®

From an era of spies, the Bicycle® Espionage deck is a tribute to agents of all kinds. Now available with an enhanced foil design on the individual cards and the embossed tuck. The final product is stunning and needs to be seen to be fully appreciated.

Created specifically for backers of the original Asylum deck project.  Only 200 copies were printed and distributed to these backers from the project sponsored by Ed Nash which fell through and did not deliver (until years later after subsequent lawsuit).  The artist, Roman Kotiv, and NoirArts later recreated the deck and fullfiled to those backers on their own. They were hand wrapped into newspaper manually by workers and included a real red fingerprint on the back.

NOTE - this was confirmed by Roman Kotiv that only 200 copies were printed, not the original 810 as initially listed in this entry.

The Requiem also tied for winning the Best Pips award from UnitedCardists 2014 Deck of the Year http://unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6448
