Before I was even into cards, I found this deck at my grandparents house and I've used it for years in card games and I just remembered that they gave it to me.
I don't know too much about it. I think it's from 1990 and it was made for a tobacco company called Phillip Morris Inc.
The Ace of Spades is identical to a Jerry's Nuggets AoS except for the little number at the bottom. I'm assuming it was printed by the USPCC but I really want to know for sure.
It came in 2 colors, (white and red) but i only have the red one.

I believe the Phillip Morris company also printed the VSlims.

I think I saw Dan or Dave using these on an interview on ReelMagic.
A very nice subliminal message to advertise their names. 8)
