I'm surprised I don't see or hear much about this deck or its creators. I'm also relatively new to collecting playing cards... so maybe I'm missing something. Regardless one of the coolest decks I own. Let me know your thoughts on it in the comments below.

A quick version of my background story...
A quick caveat... you're gonna see attempt some cardistry and in some rare cases some magic tricks, let me apologize in advance for the shoddiness of my mechanics. Truth is a few caveats, I’m not a cardist or a magician, but my love affair with playing cards goes back far. Watching my grandfather and father playing cards with friends and family still count as some of my earliest memories. . I apologize in advance for my crappy mechanics. Some decades later, I found myself frequent a lot of poker tables and fancied myself a bit of an amutuer rounder--I lived off of what I made playing cards for about year. Then I lost my ass in Atlantic City and that was the end of that. But I never lost the affinity for the feel of card deck in my hands. I’ve also been a collector of many different sorts. Comic books when I was younger, scale action figures later. They put me on TV once for my ⅙ scale diorama collection. To me Comics, Figures, and Cards are art. That’s what draws me to them, and the stories they might tell makes them worth reviewing.I am an avid collector of classical and pop art though, and playing cards slot pretty nicely in there..

I plan on doing a lot more of these for many different kinds and styles of decks.

Hope you enjoy it!
