ADD COPY - Two new decks from Card Mafia

The Black & Gold Suit, or the Inside Out Suit, first appeared in Spider-Man: No Way Home when a Mysterio supporter threw paint at Peter Parker's Upgraded Suit. To capture Electro later in the film, Peter has flipped his Upgraded Suit inside out (hence the name) revealing the black and gold circuit boards in side. We are about to swing you right into the world of Peter Parker, (a.k.a Spider-Man) created by Marvel Studios.

and Following the death of his father, T'Challa took the mantle of becoming the king and protector of Wakanda. With the help of the Heart-Shaped Herb, he was given superhuman strength, speed, and instincts. He has fought alongside other Avengers and has proven to be worthy of the Black Panther Mantle. WAKANDA FOREVER!

Deck Review - Momentum Playing Cards by Artisan Tarot

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wo5l9yBMUic

ADD COPY

This Momentum poker deck is designed by Krisztin Kondor and is inspired by movement captured in a particular moment in time. It features a back design which suggests movement, custom suits, and intricately drawn court cards that capture the essence of the deck.

As you explore the court cards, note the subtle variations between the characters on the top and bottom. This serves as a reminder that even within a single moment, there is constant change.

This first edition is limited to 1000 decks. Each deck is individually numbered on the seals.

Magic Review - The Casino High Roller Deck by Bob Farmer

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRfV3e7tveM

ADD COPY

Over time he had assembled a deck of 52 different cards, two Jokers and all the back designs from all the casinos he had beaten, a veritable prism of kaleidoscopic casino colors and designs, a winner's deck conjured from luck, skill and the turn of a card.

Until now only this high roller had such a deck? but today you can get in on the action, the legend, the savoir faire, the je ne sais quoi? because BOB FARMER and BAMMO MAGIC have teamed up with SLIMCARDCO, the world's preeminent gambling gaffs firm, to produce the CASINO HIGH ROLLER DECK.

Do not confuse this deck with the multitude of so-called gaffed decks whose purveyors tout their many uses but deliver, at most, frail and feeble effects suitable only for that old guy amusing his grandchildren at the birthday party. This is not a so-called Rainbow Deck, though there is a pot of magic gold involved. The CASINO HIGH ROLLER DECK can be examined, yet within its colorful pasteboard realms are secrets so well-hidden and powerful that amazing and unique routines are finally possible:

Predict a spectators' casino of choice.

Turn the spectator into a Blackjack card counter blindly separating high cards from low cards .

Beat odds of more than one thousand billion to one.

Play Poker and Blackjack and never lose.

Make the spectator's card disappear from the deck and appear in the card case the spectator has been holding.

Play Casino 3-Card Monte and win the jackpot that will put you on Easy Street for life.

Predict the card a throw of the dice selects.

Satisfaction guaranteed or we will apologize. This ad contains shameless hyperbole, tall talk, and unprincipled exaggeration.

Deck Review - Lighthouse Beacon Playing Cards

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9vJ1u3A5Uo

ADD COPY

Beacon Playing Cards is based off of the theme of "finding light in the darkness". I felt that the definition of what a beacon is perfectly fits this deck and the positive message I want to portray. On the tuck it states, "Be the light." I enjoy the hope of being the light during someone's dark times.

Manufactured by USPCC, Lighthouse: Beacon is printed on their classic Bicycle stock with air cushion finish.

Two-way back design
Broken border (great for fans)
Custom Ace of Spades
Two identical jokers
An additional joker with a reveal (perfect for tricks)

Magic Review - Bicycle Gaff Index

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km_TFvKpn-E

ADD COPY

GAFF INDEX deck is an assortment of poker cards including 56 gaff cards printed on the most used cards in the world of magic : Bicycle Rider back.

In addition to this 56 cards deck, you will have access to a tutorial video (1h40) explaining 15 routines that can be performed with the cards included in the GAFF INDEX deck.

You can also use these special cards to create your own routines!

The GAFF INDEX deck is composed of:

13 Red backed double index cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings)
12 Blue backed double index cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings)
12 Half/half cards (horizontal, vertical and diagonal separation)
4 Red backed double index cards (Aces)
4 Red backed double index cards (Ace/2)
2 Blue backed double index cards (Ace/2)
3 Double index and double face cards (Jacks/jacks, Queens/queens and Kings/kings)
2 Double index cards with blank back (Queens)
2 Cards 4 different indexes (1 red back and 1 blue back)
1 Red backed double index card (2 of hearts/ 2 of diamonds)
1 Domino card
Here are some routines explained in the tutorial video:

The thinking card: You present 5 cards to your spectator and ask him to choose one mentally and memorize it. After a magical gesture, a card is erased and becomes blank: it is exactly the card thought by the spectator.

Oil and water: You shuffle the deck and take out 3 red cards and 3 black cards. Then the cards are alternated to mix the red and black cards. Magically the red and black cards will separate. After doing the same experiment a second time, the cards of the whole deck will separate with the red cards on one side and the black cards on the other.

Impression: You start by showing a completely blank card (face and back) and then ask the spectator to name the queen of his choice. Once the card has been named, you take the blank card and magically make the face of the spectator's chosen card appear. Finally you will magically print the back of the card that you can give to the spectator to examine.

Merge: You make your audience choose two cards and then thanks to a magical gesture the two cards will merge together. Once the audience has examined the card, you will magically separate the two cards back to the original situation.

Change: You show a prediction card that has a different back before you start. Then the spectator chooses a card that does not match your prediction. You then take your prediction card and insert it into the deck, leaving it sticking out. Then the card will visually change into the spectator's chosen card. You can then give the card to the spectator to examine.

4 in 1: You have your audience freely select four cards and then reveal that they are exactly the four 4's in the deck (spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds). You then take a special card that has a different back and a blank face and place it on top of the four cards. After a few seconds, the card is printed and the four indexes of the 4s appear.

Magic Review - Permanent Record by Ben Seidman

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzlcHObNVOA

ADD COPY

Permanent Record is everything you'd want in a close-up trick. This baffling miracle rocks every room and leaves people stunned with amazement. Its powerful, direct, perfectly practical, and so easy to perform that it's ridiculous. This is one of Bens everyday carries for both professional performances and seemingly impromptu miracles. You won't want to leave home without it.

While there are many ways to present Permanent Record, the core routine starts by showing your audience that there is a playing card printed on every box of cards and explaining how it has been known to influence people to subconsciously always think of that card (Ben even teaches you how to transform this into its own bonus moment of powerful magic). So, to make this experience totally fair, you'll need them to choose a card at random

The cards are removed and they are given the box to hold while another card is freely chosen. You not only amazingly know the card they chose, but their jaws will be on the floor when they check the box in their hands again and find the card image has impossibly changed to match their new selection. They can examine the box all they want, there's nothing to find. What really hammers this routine home though is Bens clever routining that leaves the spectator feeling like the magic continues long after you leave.

Deck Review - The Fellowship of the Ring Playing Cards by Kings Wild

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa5VNgx4pKM

ADD COPY

Kings Wild Project is excited to announce the release of the officially licensed 'The Lord of the Rings' Playing Cards. Licensed through Middle-earth Enterprises, we will be producing a series of beautifully illustrated playing card decks for each of the three masterpieces.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by the Elven-smiths, and Sauron, the Dark Lord, forged the One Ring, filling it with his own power so that he could rule all others. But the One Ring was taken from him, and though he sought it throughout Middle-earth, it remained lost to him. After many ages it fell into the hands of Bilbo Baggins, as told in The Hobbit. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose.

The design for the Ireland Deck is inspired by the beautiful island of it?s namesake. My wife and I visited Ireland a long time ago, and we enjoyed every second we spent on The Emerald Isle.

The Back Card for the Ireland Deck highlights the Irish Harp in a common head-to-head design structure. The Celtic Knots border and background pattern help finish the timeless and elegant look.

The Ireland Deck will be printed by Legends Playing Card Co., with their China Printer (and with their Classic Finish). The Classic Finish is a softer and slicker paper. It?s more comparable to a vintage Bicycle Deck. This will be my eighth time printing with Legends Playing Cards. They do an amazing job!!

The Court Cards for the Divination Decks were created using Antique Photos of men and women from the late 1800s or early 1900s. The Courts for the Black Deck are composited with elements of the Back Card and the classic ouija spirit design. The Courts for the Blue Deck are "trapped" within an octagon shape and incorporate elements from the Back Card's pentagram pendulum design. Both sets of Court Cards emanate an ethereal and celestial vibe throughout.

The Divination Decks will be printed by Legends Playing Card Co., with their China Printer (and with their Classic Finish). The Classic Finish is a softer and slicker paper. It?s more comparable to a vintage Bicycle Deck. This will be Randy?s ninth time printing with Legends Playing Cards. They do an amazing job!!

Chris Ramsay has collaborated with the most iconic deck in playing card history. 

This is the first collaboration for the 1ST playing cards by Chris Ramsay. The Bicycle Rider Backs are world renowned and because of this, are a highly protected trademark. It took Chris Ramsay over a year to get this design approved and by doing so, have become one of two entities to manipulate it's design. The only other entity to ever manipulate the back design in almost 150 years is NASA, a collaboration which happened over 50 years ago.

Deck Review  - Eleusis Marked Deck by Fraser Parker

video review

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5c7MrEzcv3U

add copy

The Eleusis Deck is the ultimate marked deck that can be read just as effortlessly from a distance, as it can up close.

These cards are printed on the finest card stock utilizing Cartamundi's 'True Linen B9 finish'.

They are a Poker size deck with a beautiful back design that appears completely normal to the uninitiated, yet hidden in plain sight is a simple to learn marking system that will allow you to create miracles.

Thanks to the intuitive way of coding numbers built into the symmetrical marking system, each card becomes effortless to read after a little practice. You will be able to glance at the back of a card for a second and instantly know its identity, even if the back of the card is partially obscured from view by your spectator and even if the card is viewed from across the room.

It will become second nature for you to read the cards, once you have spent only a small amount of time learning to recognize the various patterns that are inherent in the marking system. There is no real mental effort on your part in performance but if necessary, you will still be able to mentally construct the identity of each of the cards by following the simple rules of the marking system. As soon as you have become familiar with the deck, you will be able to get a full read of each card in a second.

The marking system utilizes the negative white space inherent in the back design to create each of the markings, which means they will stay completely hidden from view from those who you perform for, via perception.

The back design features airplanes & clocks in a patterned design with a white border. The blue-green color scheme is the perfect choice for a timeless deck. The faces include a custom Ace of Spades and two custom Jokers alongside the Penguin Custom Standard court & number cards. Two gaff cards are included for magic tricks.

The deck is printed with Penguin Magic's exclusive UltraLux? Finish and AquaFlow? Coating. This combination of casino-grade European card stock and water-based coating makes the deck handle like an absolute dream. The cards are traditionally cut with smooth edges that provide just the right amount of grip. These cards are soft enough to get to work straight out of the box, but durable enough to meet the needs of a full-time magician, cardist, or card sharp.

The stylish tuck box comes complete with inside printing and is topped off with a custom sticker seal, individually numbered out of 500.

Magic Review - Professional Invisible Deck by  Stevens Magic

VIDEO REVIEW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2LcDLn1C0s

ADD COPY

This is NOT your regular Invisible Deck.  Features a slightly different technical you will LOVE!  Access the video tutorial download that will be in your order confirmation e-mail.

SME brand custom Invisible deck. While most invisible decks manufactured in bulk will usually do the job, Stevens Magic built our reputation on pushing the envelope and providing professional quality products. Thus, we have hired a professional card mechanic to hand-make these Invisible Decks. These are not bulk manufactured ? each deck is made by hand with meticulous attention to quality control.

We have sold a lot of card decks in our 43-year history at Stevens Magic? While we don?t have numbers to back it up we can state that The Invisible Deck is probably the number ?ONE? top selling gimmicked deck we have sold. I believe one of the reasons is of all the gimmicked decks used for our primary target ? individuals who have been in the art of magic for several years ? this is the preferred deck that is ordered usually by the same customer, again and again?.

Often incorrectly marketed solely to neophytes (beginners), it is a deck that even magic celebrities incorporate, included but not limited to, David Blaine.

Effect: You ask the spectator to THINK of any card in the deck. Don?t say it yet, just think it. You tell them to imagine that random card reversed ? face down ? in a face up deck. At this point the magician offers the spectator the chance to change their mind and think of a different card if so desired. It is truly a free thought. The magician explains that he has turned ?one? card face-down in this deck ? only ?ONE? card. At this point he asked the spectator to verbally announce the name of the card they choose. The spectator replies ? ?Queen of Hearts.?

Magician reiterates the spectator had a chance to change his mind yet choose this one card and then proceeds to produce a deck and ribbon spread it face-up so that all cards can be seen except for one, which is the only card that is face-down in the deck.

If desired the magician can ask to the spectator to view the face-up cards and look for their card, but upon doing so, the spectator is unable to find it ? surely ? the one card that is face-down can?t be the spectator?s chosen card ? right? Wrong! In fact, as it turns out the only card that was face-down in the face-up spread deck indeed IS the spectator?s freely thought of card.

This is nothing less than a miracle in your pocket.  Easy to perform and carry and good for table hopping or any close-up event. Can you immediately repeated.

?I received my invisible deck the other day and I want to thank you for making a deck that has good roughing fluid on it. I bought ones in the past from magic shops and the deck wore out in a couple days from practicing with it because of cheap roughing fluid .? ? Verified Purchaser ? Ed

Card Magic Book Review - Sonata by Juan Tamariz

video review

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6lz-aGZ_60

When Sonata appeared in 1989, Juan Tamariz was already known as an important performer, creator and thinker. His performances in nightclubs and on stage and television had made him a celebrity in Spain and in many other Latin countries. By the time The Five Points in Magic, The Magic Way and Sonata were published in English, his reputation, already spreading through the underground streams of international magic, burst to the surface and established Tamariz as a master. His two previous books laid the foundation on which Sonata, a generous sampling from his professional repertoire, was built.

Sonata was Tamariz?s first volume of ?Bewitched Music?. Years later, Mnemonica, the second volume of the series, shook the magic scene. By that time, Sonata had been out of print for years and used copies fetched high prices. At long last, Sonata is back, newly edited, with errors and omissions corrected and information added. This is Sonata with an enhanced score. The material, while published decades ago, is still vibrant. It has not aged. It is a selection of some of the finest magic with playing cards and penknives ever published, ready to be presented by today?s performers for the amazement of today?s audiences. This sonata is written to be played?a classic work renewed for this and future generations.

Included with Sonata is a reproduction booklet of The New Mini-Symbolic Method; a system of symbols developed by Juan Tamariz to read, interpret, and write down tricks. It was originally published in conjunction with Sonata in 1989. It has been revised for the new edition.

About Juan Tamariz:

A celebrity of television and stage in Spain and South America, Juan Tamariz is known internationally among magicians as a true master of his art, and one who generously shares his time and knowledge, both in print and in person, with the magic community. He is the author of six critically acclaimed best-selling books in English: The Five Points in Magic, The Magic Way, Sonata, Mnemonica, The Magic Rainbow and Verbal Magic.

Along with Arturo de Ascanio, Tamariz has spearheaded a school of thought in close-up magic that has produced FISM award-winning champions and deeply influenced the craft of magic worldwide. Tamariz lives in Madrid and performs everywhere.

It's very unlikely that your neighbor will know magic, or collect custom decks too.

That's why we live our lives online. In a frantic search to find like-minded souls... to find our people.

The Discord Deck is a celebration of those common ideas coming together to form an alliance. A community.

The back design is unrestrained and free-spirited. A nod to the new wave magicians that are ditching the rabbits and top hats for a more modern take on magic.

The deck itself features fully custom faces, including courts and aces.
