From design studio Turnstyle comes a custom deck of playing cards inspired by the magical and surreal world of Wonderland. Beware the Queen of Hearts!

Steve originally submitted this deck for us after he created it is a promotional piece for his son's elementary school's stage production of Alice in Wonderland. After falling in love with the deck, we approached Steve to launch this stunning promotional deck into a produced campaign, with a portion of the proceeds going to Loyal Heights Elementary School.

These limited edition playing cards, designed by Turnstyle, are inspired by Lewis Caroll’s classic fairy tale Alice in Wonderland. Modern styling combined with lavish Art Nouveau/Art Deco ornamentation transport us down the rabbit hole to a surreal world presided over by the Queen of Hearts. Iconic quotes from the story are peppered throughout the deck and on the tuck box. Court cards feature typographic royals with custom suit symbols as crowns. Attention to typographical nuances, including a bespoke “double” typeface, are evocative of the mysterious parallel worlds of both Wonderland and cardistry—where sleight of hand means that what you see is not necessarily what you get.

The Kings Wild Americanas sports a red, white, and patriotic blue colorway with custom card back reminiscent of the Tally-Ho circle back, Ace Spades and Jokers. The court cards are Kings Wild Standards and feature the same color scheme as the tuck and card backs. Definitely a beautiful deck for any table game with friends and family.

Three editions are on offer- the Standard Edition, Limited Edition and Gilded Edition. All three decks are printed by The United States Playing Card Company on crushed Casino Bee Stock and traditionally cut. They have an air-cushioned finished for exceptional handling and play.

The tuck cases are beautifully letterpressed by Clove St. The Limited Edition tucks features embossing and stunning gold hot pressed foiling. Also, the Limited Edition will be numbered and sealed with a gold foil seal.

This deck will feature the new set of Kings Wild Standard Vintage Courts. This court set was originally developed for the Tigers but I have evolved it even further from the courts used in the Standard Tigers deck to what you see below. This is the same court set featured in the Thoroughbreds deck, but it will have a Red, White, and Blue color theme in the Americana.

This will be the first deck that features the new Kings Wild Standard Court set printed by the United States Playing Card Company.

Betrayers Tenebra is inspired by the ones who conspire in the darkness. Not all of them are cowards - some are just strategists who wait for the right time to strike. These kinds of Betrayers are the most dangerous since they don't seem like a threat - until is too late. Full Deck Scan: https://cardscans.piwigo.com/index?/category/159-betrayers_tenebra

This is the second edition of Flora Playing Cards. Originally teased as an advertisement card in Red Floras, Black Floras are now printed. The back design still features a memorable floral print in an array of vibrant colors, yet the background color now features solid black. This allows the floral print to pop out and not get lost within the background color. The illustration of the design has also been slightly modified for aesthetic improvements. The deck was printed from The United States Playing Card Company on Air Cushion Finish with their Crushed Stock. Thus, the deck is optimally thin for card handlers including magicians and cardists, resultantly feels remarkably smooth to handle, and promotes long lasting use. The tuck case has been beautifully handcrafted by Clove Street Press, a San Diego based letterpress company. The box features the word 'Flora' or the closest equivalent written in 25 different languages in both striking metallic grey ink as well as matte finish, white foil. The box, itself, is premium matte finish paper. There is also a colorful seal which alludes to the back design.

Some of the features include: A natural one-way back design An anamorphic illusion built onto one of the Jokers A red/blue Double Back A custom anamorphic Ace of Spades A duplicate Ace of Spades with a built-in reveal Standard faces to be used with commercially available face-up gimmicks

The wonderful Gilded Butterfly playing cards by the amazing Ondrej Psenicka. From a kickstarter in the summer of 2019. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ondrejpsenicka/butterfly-playing-cards-black/description "In the Butterfly Playing Cards, you’ll find the familiarity of your favorite US card faces, mixed with a unique shimmering detail on the court, joker, and ace cards. Nothing short of stunning, all court faces are graced with gold or silver foil detail, adding a sense of regality to their presence. One of the jokers boasts a stunning gold/silver butterfly. Only one? Oh, yes. Magicians will be able to tell you why.... The aces reflect their gorgeous back design, and the master of them all, the ace of spades, presides over them, glistening in golden/silver understated elegance."

The first release of Cardistry Calligraphy at the 2017 Cardistry-Con in Los Angeles, quickly sold out at the conference. As its name suggests, it celebrates the beauty of calligraphy. In addition, this feature makes it the perfect choice for cardistry, as flourishes and other effects look elegant and eye-catching when using this deck. BOMBMAGIC in collaboration with Ink Academy, the first international calligraphy school, has created a deck of cards in calligraphic style. This deck is great for conveying and continuing the distinct performance of card flourishing. Our hope is that Cardistry Calligraphy carries on the art and craft of "Cardistry", bringing the tradition further into the world and the future.

CHROME KINGS ARTIST EDITION - There has never been anything quite like this deck! The amount of ingenuity and thought/design that went into this deck will blow you away! This incredible deck was created with the collector in mind. The back design is similar to the Players Edition but with a Dragon on the back dial. Each court card is different, and has split images of each court card 3D model at different angles. The number cards of each suit were carefully designed to come together and form the 3D King of each suit into a mini poster. Each deck contains four "mini-posters" created by the number cards. The box and special cards within were designed specifically for a color changing deck routine for magicians. The box can look silver or red, depending on which angle it's viewed from. This deck has a special Ad card with De'vo's signature, a red/silver double backer, and two different jokers with red backs for the color changing deck routine. This deck also has a silver foil seal.

The backs and faces will make different fans depending on which way you fan them. Each court card is completely different and was created in 3D with unbelievable details! There are two different Jokers (big and little) as well as a blank card and a color changing double backer card for magicians. The box has a silver foil seal. The overall style of this deck is unmistakable, yet still retains the overall feel of traditional playing cards.
