hey guys so I was wondering to anybody who saw that vsauce video the (body deck) how do you make one? im trying to do it because the product isn't available anywhere and its really sad to see its a limited product also im trying to see if I can do it with anything (memes, a brain any character) if anybody has a lead let me know
Anyone know of any decks in the style of Rockwell or Leyendecker? Doesn't have to be actual art by these artists but I love the style and I think a deck that incorporated it would look awesome. Thanks!
I posted this a while back in r/magic and they guided me here. This is from a brand new Cherry Casino deck, is this a stack or are they just put in a random order. If it is a stack what stack is it?
Thanks in advance!
just thought this was kinda funny and cool to share :)
Mythical Creatures II from Gent Supply. My new daily/carry deck.
Trying to get a deck of cards printed for our dog, who is going to pass over the next couple of months.
Seeing lots of places where I could put an image on the back, but I’d love to do all the Aces with one image, Kings of another, etc.
Please help! Many thank yous in advance! I imagine this may make my girlfriend’s Christmas!
I've been collecting brand-new cards for a while now, but I recently started acquiring cards from pre-1970 because I mainly collect cards as art objects and I tend to prefer a more traditional illustration style.
None of my decks are particularly valuable (I've never spent more than 40 dollars on a single pack) but some are quite old, one of them was made 104 years ago.
What's a good way to store them so that I can both protect them and easily take them out and appreciate them? I was thinking of using a hinged wooden case that is meant for storing cassettes. I have a bunch of those little plastic boxes from PCD.com, but those are sized to fit modern, standardized packs.
Please use this thread to post what you are buying and selling (preferably a link to your r/playingcardsmarket post), promos you are running and other advertisement.
Main sub rules still apply, keep everything civil. Ads can only be posted here once per weekly thread (There should be no more than an ad for any one post/site/listing/shop).
NOTE: This is a trial run, let me know if this is good for discussion/limiting ads, etc.
i’ve been desperately searching for these cards everywhere and i’m looking for someone who is willing to sell them 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’ve been a collector for a long time now, and I recently picked up the “original Mickey Mouse” playing cards from bicycle. Cards are great and what you expect from bicycle. However, on a couple numbered cards there is a small Mickey or Minnie Mouse. Two cards in each suit, one with Mickey another with Minnie They go: Spades: Mickey 9 of spades Minnie 5 of spades Diamonds: Mickey 8 of diamonds Minnie 6 of diamonds Clubs: Mickey 4 of clubs Minnie 10 of clubs Hearts: Mickey 2 of clubs Minnie 5 of clubs
I feel like it HAS to be some kind of reference or Easter egg right? It’s just these number cards. Please I’m loosing my mind here
What are the cornerstone, or “key” decks that should be in any collection, and why?
I realize the easy answer is, “whatever decks you like”. But what decks, in your opinion, should every collector have, and why?
Edit: perhaps the better question is: what do you consider the anchor, or cornerstone, of your collection?
I have noticed that at least some of the different colored Jerry’s Nugget decks have different extra cards. For example the modern feel yellow and purple decks. One has three jokers and a blank, the other two jokers, double backer and a blank.
I wonder if the extras differ by color, year, or something else. Does someone know more about the logic behind the different extra cards?
Our affordable decks are even more affordable this Black Friday!

Hi everyone,
We're Red and Salt, two friends that are trying to put their medieval studies to good use. We decided to create a collection of 6 decks of cards called INTERMED which stands for international and medieval. These are the Kings for our first deck in the collection, The Dragon and The Queen. From the title, can you guess which tale we took our inspiration from?
We're still worldbuilding a comic centered on our cards but were too excited and wanted to show what we've been working on. Salt is in the process of finishing all the face cards and we're hoping to launch our Kickstarter with WJPC around February.
Let us know how you like them and if you want some more updates and a giveaway, don't hesitate to follow us on instagram at redsaltproject.
