Daniel Madison's first independent deck, the deck commemorates the launch of Daniel's new independent company dedicated to playing cards, and the creative and deceptive arts.

The deck comes in a minimalistic tuck box, which oddly opens from the bottom with a reveal on the tuck flap.  People who pre-ordered this - also received a Madison business card, and a single card autographed by Daniel Madison.

This custom deck features a minimal, negative space back design that showcases the Madisonist logo. The courts and number cards are standard with only Black and Red color used.

As with the recent HELLIONS release, the Ace of Diamonds takes over as the power ace and Madison's face is on the King of Diamonds. (along with a few secrets)

Deck Reviews! / Video Review: Disparos Black by Ellusionist
« on: June 01, 2018, 11:16:31 AM »

The Disparos Tequila deck is a fun representation of the Mexican old west. The playing cards are filled with illustrations of bandits, outlaws, skulls and, of course, tequila bottles! What makes these cards so unique is the detail put into the design. The cards themselves look worn out, as if they've been through years of wear and tear, with marks of what could be spilled over ale and tequila.

Ghostly images of outlaws past make up the royal cards, adding to the rustic appeal of this unique deck. Made with the highest quality paper, the Disparos Tequila playing cards are durable and lasting.

Main Features:
High quality stock material
Embossed illustrations
Block print design

The primary colors are bright and eye-catching, while the subtle cool grey allows for subtle borders. This design was created to flow with your flourishes and accentuate your cardistry moves. The Ace is done in the Broadway design, and the signature colors are used throughout the court cards. The extra cards included are two Jokers, a double backer, and a blank face.

Limited Edition of 7,500. Once they're gone, they're gone.

The moment the audience sees these special card backs, they'll know they're in for a hair-raising demonstration of mentalism and more!
The back design is the Ouija Board. The ouija, also known as a spirit board or talking board, is a flat board marked with the letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0–9, the words "yes", "no", "hello", and "goodbye", along with various symbols and graphics.

"Caleb is one of my favorite card creators. He creates unusual, high-impact card magic that is easy to do and astounds everyone, from laymen to magicians."
- Joshua Jay

Travelers for Jack - For the first time, Caleb explains the highlight of his close-up show. This is one that everybody will be talking about!

Reswindled 2.0 - A visual update to Caleb's acclaimed Reset routine.

iDeck - A geeky card trick with a fun, commercial presentation and a kicker ending!

Replicator - A topical presentation for Hamman's Signed Card effect with some outside interference from an odd-backed card.

Make a Wish... Again - A practical, birthday-themed card effect that is easy enough for the relative beginner but strong enough for the working pro.

Clue - An easy-to-do effect using a fascinating and rarely-seen card magic principle. Watch out for the curveball at the end!

All Signs Point to Yes - A playful premise for a visual routine that leaves the spectator with a wonderful souvenir. Joshua Jay calls this a "blockbuster practical effect."

Semi-Automatic Luck Test - Your tag team partner shuffles the deck, then defies the odds by producing the Kings... AND the Aces!

Cross-Eyed Triumph - An explosive production of a named four-of-a-kind... and that's only the beginning!

Armchair Mind Reading - This simple effect has fooled some of the best card guys in the world. It looks like real mind reading... and it's completely self-working!

Lucky Shuffle - An always-ready-to-go closer where the method is as awesome as the effect. They'll call you the Match-o Man after this one!

Elimin-ACE-ion - An over-the-top rope elimin-ACE-ion match, mixing magic and mentalism.

Here-A-Move, There-A-Move, Everywhere-A-Move-Move - A finger-flinging eye-popper using four un-gaffed Aces. Plus, Caleb teaches Elevation, a fantastic trick from Joshua Jay!

Paparazzi Pack - A self-working showpiece with run-ins from a huge cast of characters.

Little Fella Grows Up - A false dealing demonstration that does not require any false deals. Just call it the Royal Rumble Flush!

1st Playing Cards are the first of its kind. The foil "1st" band running right to the edges is something brand new which has never been done in the history of USPCC, and offers a beautiful result when fanning or spreading the deck. Together , these elements create a subtle yet strikingly bold and attractive design.

"1st" represents Chris' very first solo venture in to the playing card industry but also representing the first comments he gets on various platforms  from supporters around the world. It's representative of what he's grown in to, what Chris loves and how he sees the community that he lives in.

This deck will come in Mnemonica stack and a complete custom design, which includes a re-coloring of the face cards using metallic ink and custom jokers. There is also a blank card as well as a duplicate.

Greille is the fourth design in the premium playing card group, and the second deck created by Rick Davidson. Showcasing a unique grid pattern throughout the deck, Greille is a gorgeous blend of modern design and traditional playing card elements.

Legends Playing Cards have printed every deck in the LUXX® series and they've never disappointed. Legends has superb packaging, accurate print registration and quality stock and finishes. Legends used classic finish for this deck and the handling feels as good as any deck without foil on the backs, Greille really is as good as it looks!

The knowledge deck features Classic Finish card stock with hot-stamped gold foil card backs, an extremely difficult process pioneered and mastered with our friends at Expert PCC, which requires many steps to be executed correctly.

The classic faces of Knowledge were designed by Peter Gurney of London in his Verdye deck, c.1910 and re-mastered by Legends PCC for a modern print run. The artwork was provided courtesy of the Ken Lodge collection, it is the only arts & crafts deck he has heard of and was acquired without a tuck or jokers, which made a perfect fit for Knowledge. The Arts & Crafts movement was at its height from 1880-1910 and its greatest proponents were William Morris and the early Edwin Lutyens.

Magic on Tap by Denis Behr (Vanishing Inc.)

17 routines and 6 hours of magic taught to you by a master of card magic. Excellent performances, followed by detailed explanations. Denis is smart, funny, skillful, and very tall. I think this is a must-have for any serious card magician.

Produced with Vanishing Inc, this set includes a full evening show in a theater with live audience.

Japanese history is filled with devastating typhoons and storms that have wiped out communities and caused terrible damage. As a result, Raijin and Fujin are both feared and respected for their power over nature. Statues of Raijin and Fujin are found all over Japan at the gates of Japanese shrines and temples as protectors. Visitors to these sacred places must pass by the intimidating gaze of the gods before entering.

The blue deck is Fujin and red one is Raijin. 
Fionn Jordan is the artist for this deck pair and he is super skilled at creating this style of comic book art.

The masterful use of the striking colors as accent and decorative motif helps to create a boundless space where the demonic deities of the court cards float and makes these decks true masterpieces.

Take the card that has been folded on the tuck case since the beginning of the trick at the tips of your fingers.
No, it's not possible, your spectators will say to themselves. The card has been there since the beginning and no one has touched it.
You hand the card to the spectator and invite him to unfold it.
 
I know it's completely impossible, but the card he is now holding is his signed, selected card! It's HIS signature, it's HIS card! Absolutely NO DOUBT!

Note the following:

- NO manipulation!
- As easy to do as it is incredible!
- The box does EVERYTHING. Nothing to do! The card changes instantly, just as you approach it!
- Resets in less than 20 seconds!
- The subtle mechanics and precise manufacture take care of everything!

Each box is handmade to fine tolerances. Your hand approaches the card and the card is immediately and automatically switched for another. As simple as that!

Available in red and blue rider back
