someone should compile all of the one-way back into a database with pictures marked with the differences.
I have pics of all my decks that I found a 1-way back on and I am working on that kind of thing right now should be posted in a few hours

I'm itching to see that!  Post, post, post, post...  ;)  How many decks are we talking about here?

I'd love to see that list! I could spend all day looking through my decks trying to find 1-way backs and I'd probably miss some little details. Would love to see if you found any on some of the decks I have  :)

You guys are going to make me go over my entire bloody collection looking for my one-ways, aren't you?  I probably have in the ballpark of 20 or so...at least ones that I've discovered.  I heard a few E decks mentioned, and I've never spotted a one-way back on them.

Ok here is the pictures of the 1-way back decks. These would ave been up yesterday but I ran out of time. The circles on decks are were the mark is.


First up is the White Arcane Deck. It isn`t super easy to see in the photo or in real life, but that dagger-like thing pointing outward has shading on different sides if you flip it over.


Next is the Karnival Midnight deck, It has that extra little dot when it is turned one direction making it very easy to see when looking for it in a spread.

Next is the Regular Karnival Deck. It has the same mark as the midnight`s.


Now we go to the Karnival Renegades. The renegades skeleton on the back of the card Look at his hat, The glare on makes a subtle but noticable 1-way back.

Ok here we go with the Shadow Masters deck. If you look in the circled corner you will see that on one part of te cards the corner does not close all the way and makes a 1-way.


Next Is the LTD deck. If you look at the bottom circled part, It isnt very noticable in the picture but you can see that there is about half of an extra row o design added on the backs o the cards to make them 1-way.


Up next is the If An Octopus Could Palm Deck. The bottom row of tentacles thing whatevertheyares has 8 in one line and 7 in the other.

Now we are at all of the Artifice Decks that I own (Blue V1 and 2, Emerald). So these are not very noticable on te V2 decks but very noticable on the V1s. If you look at the circles along the bottom you will see that one set is bigger than the other set.

Here is the last set of pictures


First we have the 1800 Series decks from Ellusionist. It isnt very noticable in the picture but one of the corners of the cards is darker than the other corners.


Next is the T11 Centurions deck. If you look in the ace coming into the middle there is a wing in it in opposite directions.


Last but defiatly not least is the T11 Guardians. If you look above The Angel on Steroids you will see a box on one card but on the otherone it is very faint.

On the 1800s, the ink fading isn't the best way to spot it. If you look IN the border, one of the corners is darker, and that makes the cards VERY easy to differenciate even if your spread is too short to see the rider back.

LoL. Nice find but there's something that'll slap you in the face when you find it in the Shadow Masters. And I'm telling you it slapped me pretty hard.

I prefer hand written signatures over digital ones but the ink appears to be stuck on my monitor screen...

And another from the Bicycle Limited Edition Series. This one is 2 of 10. This was the only one I could find. Anyone find better one-way for this?

At the bottom of the cards, the pips that are at the bottom and half cut off are clubs, diamonds, hearts. When holding it this way round, the pips across the top are clubs, diamonds, hearts. So, when it's turned over, the pips along the top/bottom would be hearts, diamonds, clubs.
I've added in a picture to try and help explain.

I see it!! Although that isn't a tiny detail, it's very hard to find. My mind just thinks that it is uniform and 1-way! I feel that not many people would catch that, but I could be wrong. Thanks for the picture and the explanation

Yeah, I was pretty amazed when I saw it for the first time, too. Makes you feel kinda dumb, that you missed something that's so blatant. And no problem!

That's cool. I dont have that many decks to play around with but if I do open them, I usually look for the one-way back right away. I have a big batch coming in so I'll check that. So far, the ones that are giving me a headache are the Transducers. Waaaayyyyy too much detail for me... ???

But so far my favorite is always the Tally-Ho Circle Backs. That crap's old but still not a lot people know about it. BTW, since no one is posting that here, I'm assuming everyone here knows right?
