Found this image on Kete Moon's Facebook page.  Asked him about it, waiting on a reply.  It could very well be legit.  He called them "Silver Slippers".  Wasn't there an old deck with the same name?

No, this is not a new Ellusionist deck. This was a deck for an old casino I believe and it's considered a very rare, sought after deck. It came in a variety of colors.

Here is a pic that I found of the black version:

NEW Mom's Shoes Deck from Ellusionist  ::)

Anyway, those seem quite appealing to women. My shoeholic girlfriend would probably love them.

don you r joking right :). although i would love to get my hands on those cards. from what i learned these are bee stock instead of the jerry nugget/golden nugget stock, although they r from roughly the same time. and apparently the back is metallic ink and i am just a sucker for that.

Sorry for the repeat but but it looks like people didn't read through the thread.

Kete Moon himself said as much.  I'd heard of the Silver Slipper Casino and their decks, but considered the possibility that E might be doing a reprint of a classic design, similar to what T11 did with the Bee Stingers.  I have to say, though - those Slippers do not have the most attractive back I've ever seen, by a long-shot...  I hope they're sought after for their handling and not their appearance!
