I am not sure if this topic is placed in the right spot. Anyway ...

I recently decide to start a new hobby and that is collecting luxury or premium playing cards. But I am not that fond on decks with regular number cards, I really want to collect playing card decks with all unique art and not just unique art on the aces and face cards. I already found out that Art of Play has some of those and a few other decks here and there. Where can I find some more? Decks are good, but companies who make these kind of decks are even better. I am not really in the mood for watching thousands of youtube reviews to find an occasional deck that is what I am looking for.  :D

Let me put up a list of stuff I discovered:

01. Ultimate Deck (Stranger Deck) - Art of Play
02. Cabinetarium - Art of Play
03. Vivid Kingdoms - Ten Hundred
04. Ethereal Dreams - Digital Desire
05. Culturae Animalis - Jack Penny
06. Dinosaur Playing Cards- Art of Play
07. Eastern Forest - Art of Play
08. Into the Weird - Art of Play
09. The Magicians - Biz and Friends
10. Playing Arts - Digital Abstracts
11. Pipmen World Full Art - Elephant
12. Eye of the Ocean - Stockholm17
13. Vaxa Deck - Leah Pantea
14. Bosch Puzzle Playing Cards - Guru
15. 5th Kingdom - Prototype

There are also some decks that have "normal" number cards I still find interesting like for example Beowulf (Kings Wild), Black Requiem (Stockholm17) or Tempo (Art of Play). But I have to really like the face cards and box/back cover art and usually the number cards are numbers, but are still a little different.

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

  • Facebook:
A handful of the Karnival branded decks from Big Blind Media in the UK (printed by USPC, most of them were Bicycle-branded) have all-unique art for every card.  The Dead Eyes were one deck that stands out, for sure.

Anne Stokes, a very Gothic-style artist, has a handful of deck designs under her belt - each face is unique artwork.

There was a UK clothing brand that was releasing all-unique faces on their decks, at least some of them - can't remember the name off the top of my head.  I do recall they had tattoo flash art on each card face, which was pretty cool.

Does EPHEMERID by Mr. Cup qualify or are you looking for very different art?

Check out The Octopus Playing Cards. There is a Tarot version of them too.

Technically The Green Man by Jocu are all custom but only one pip on the number cards is different.

At the Table definitely fits what you're looking for.

River and Stone

Pretty sure Open Portals are all unique.
