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

The Banknote image is a little off - it appears to have been scanned at too low of a resolution to catch all the details.

I'm torn here.  I love both decks.  I love the Banknote design and stock, but the Aladdins are also pretty nice.

I'll go with Aladdins, just because they have four jokers.  I have yet to see another deck (other than ones made in Russia) with four jokers.  The Russian decks I've seen online - I recall one actually had twelve jokers, some of which were suited!

BTW: you had a lot of misspellings of "Aladdin" - I fixed them.  I used to think it was spelled "Alladin" as well...  :))

Blame Lee for that one... ;). Hint, look at the URL of the picture

I don't normally vote but I just might have to go with Bank Note, the recent reprints are to awesome to not vote for!

You da best Don! Thank you :)

It's hard to blame him for this - I don't think it was ever intended to be blown up so large.

Well I not "blaming" him either, just thought you, or anyone else, would chuckle about that easter egg, regardless of quality :P
