Hi! I just launched a Kickstarter for my new deck of cards called Secret Menu, conceived and designed by me.  :karrit:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mike2600/secret-menu-playing-cards

52 cards with illustrations of 52 different foods
2 matching Jokers (slices of bread ... for sandwich tricks)
2 bonus gimmick cards
+ an instructional PDF to explain all of the secrets in the deck, allowing magicians of any skill level to perform some mind-bending miracles.

These will be produced by Expert Playing Card Co with their Classic Finish and packaged in matte finish tuck cases.

Thanks for taking a look!

Aces and Eights - the Vintage/Antique STISO Board / Bicycle Singles
« Last post by Bruce on October 15, 2023, 03:35:37 PM »
Hey Everyone,

I'm a bicycle single collector who's hit the wall finding cards that I "need" to fill in the gaps in my collection. There's plenty on eBay but most are for examples that I already have. I've also tried estate sales but don't think I've ever found anything.

Do any members have any ideas for finding cards or have singles that you're willing to sell? I can provide a list but there's honestly too many to list here.

Greetings everyone, I am Rubenith! I come from Australia

I like to perform cardistry and magic, albeit unskillfully, alongside playing general card games (Like Blackjack and Poker!)

I hope I can get to meet some of you around the forum, you might see me around the "Deck Review" areas!

よろしくお願いします! (Nice to meet you)

Hello everyone, especially aviation enthusiasts. I have developed a card game called Let's Fly.

It is a game for 2-6 players who compete in opening airline routes by connecting airports worldwide using appropriate passenger aircraft. There are 72 airports in 6 colours to choose from. Each colour has its own hub which can be connected to every airport of the same colour. With 38 different aircraft types there are 186 routes possible. Together, players create 6 route chains using the airport cards and the aircraft cards. Depending on the chosen game objective, players score points, conquer continents or count the transported passengers until one player reaches the goal and wins.

Besides the fun factor of the game, the added value is also the educational aspect - players learn about selected airports around the globe (their official names, geographic location, IATA codes as well as some interesting facts listed on the cards) and also get to know various aircraft types and their characteristics (passenger capacity and range).

Here is also a video of the gameplay on the Instagram link below, made by my publisher. Although the commentary in the video is in Slovenian, I hope it gives you the general idea of how the game is played:

The game is already available for purchase here (be sure to use the promotional code LETI10 for a 10 % discount):
https://shop.valueaddgames.com/en/product/lets-fly/

You can also order the game on Ebay:

Comments, questions or any kind of feedback is very welcome. Thank you.

Playing Card Plethora / Kickstarter: White Tiger Playing Cards by ARK Playing Cards

White Tiger Playing Cards by ARK Playing Cards (Kickstarter)

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/elementplayingcards/white-tiger-playing-cards-by-ark

Current funding level: already funded
Kickstarter ends: Tuesday, October 17, 2023



When it comes to quality and innovation, especially for exotic tuck box designs and lavish packaging for their playing cards, ARK Playing Cards is one of the very best in the very business.  They've now produced over half a dozen playing card projects, several of which are in the top most-funded decks of playing cards of all time.  And the reason for this success isn't hard to figure out once you've seen some of their decks in person.

Their current project is called White Tiger Playing Cards, and is the final release in a series of four sets, each of which is a tribute to the four divine beasts of Chinese Mythology.  Previous entries in this series include Azure Dragon (representing wood), Vermilion Bird (representing fire), and Black Tortoise (representing water), some of which are also available as add-ons with the current project.

Like ARK's previous decks inspired by the Four Beasts, the tuck box (shown above) is a real highlight, with a design that relies on intricate paper-cuts with multiple layers, with a 3D effect.

As for the cards themselves, the Aces feature vines and patterns with styles and colours that match the individual suit designs on the number cards.





The court cards feature military characters carrying traditional Chinese weapons, unique for each suit: Spades (Spear, Lance, Sword), Diamonds (Halberd, Bow, Axe), Clubs (Warhammer, Glaive, Trident),Hearts (Dagger-axe, Dual Swords, Crescent Blade).





As with previous sets that comprise the The Four Beasts series, The White Tiger is being produced in four different box sets, each with different levels and styles of luxury packaging:
Classic Boxset (limited edition of 1000): black deck & white deck (US$50)
Black Gold Boxset (limited edition of 500): gold deck & silver deck (US$75)
Deluxe Beech Boxset (limited edition of 300): violet deck with holo foil & gilded edges, plus a collectible coin (US$185)
Luxury Frame Boxset (limited edition of 600): coffee deck with holo foil (US$75)



Collectors will appreciate that each of these limited editions are individually numbered.
The opening design of the Classic Boxset and the Black gold Boxset is especially worthy of note, because when these boxes are opened, a built-in mechanism raises the decks to highlight their presentation.  While those each come with two decks, the Deluxe Beech Boxset and the Luxury Frame Boxset both come with a single deck, but with an exquisite presentation that beautifully showcases the tuck box and gives it the extravagant and gorgeous setting it deserves.

Other optional add-ons include a silver Tiger coin, uncut sheets, and some decks from previous entries in the series: Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise.

1. Classic Boxset

Here's some images showing the Classic Boxset, which comes with a black deck and a white deck (the white deck is already pictured above):













2. Black Gold Boxset

Here's some images showing the Black Gold Boxset, which comes with a gold deck and a silver deck:













3. Deluxe Beech Boxset

This set also includes a collectible coin.



4. Luxury Frame Boxset

Here's some images showing the Luxury Frame Boxset, which comes with a coffee deck with holo foil:













As with all the decks from ARK, words and pictures really can't do justice to the looks and quality, but check the project page for more images.
