EDIT:Pictures of the deck are on the 3rd page.


So I just won an auction on ebay for a sealed deck of cards, I also won an auction a few days back for the same deck but a used one. I dont know much about the deck other than the company who had them produced, I dont know the limit or the company who manufacters them either but I do think the box looked too good imo to pass up on, so I'm taking a risk buying 2 decks but they weren't expensive. Just for fun, here's a cropped pic of the box, any guesses what they are.....

 ;) I know it's a little unfair but it's abit of fun, more so for me I guess  :-X. I'll show them in full when I get them but maybe someone will already own some?

The colour looks right, but the design isn't like that.  :-\

Mystery is the basic appeal of magic. Once the secrets are known, the magician becomes a mere manipulator, an actor in a suspense drama which has little impact because the audience knows the ending in advance.

it appears to me that this may be an older deck?
eliminates the casino cards option because i don't recall seeing any casino decks printing "poker deck" on the box.

I'm dont think it's a vintage deck, I cant be sure but I think they were released within the past 5-10 years or maybe even earlier, I'm not sure though, when I get them maybe there will be more info on them.

We have so many card collectors on here searching the web for decks so maybe someone would've seen them before or maybe even have them.

by older i meant within 20 years. i don't consider those vintage.
 
any clues? doesn't even have to be pictures, textual hints would be kind!

I still have no idea what the deck is. From VortexHead's description, there is no manufacturer information on the box or the cards, so it is not a USPCC deck... maybe it was not made by US manufacturers. dang.. how could a deck escape from our crossfire?  >:( >:(

Uh oh, looks like we have some unhappy faces, I'll show the full deck when I get them but you guys may well think it looks terrible. If you want I'll close the thread, just thought it would be entertaining.

  • Card for me maybe?
The tuck box kinda look like these but the other snippets dont fit...  :-[ Tell us already!  >:(   http://www.pokerwinkel.nl/copag-special-edition-gold-pi-551.html


EDIT: my second guess's a vintage bicycle deck, saw lots of nice pics from this website.. 8)

http://www.jimknapp.com/Cards/Bicycle.htm
card collectors beware, you'll want them all once you see them.. then there'll be a big hole inside all our pockets..  :(


EDIT EDIT: a thought occurred to me, maybe the deck is old enough so there're no pictures? but then again.. if VortexHead is able to get pictures without physically having the deck there'll be pictures somewhere..  :-[


i should go to sleep..  :(
