Out of curiosity, what is the Charles Goodall deck that inspired your designs here?
Anything you can share about the significance of the name of this deck?
Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the comments and questions everyone. I have decided to change the card back as the first one was just not up to par with the theme. The court cards are from a deck that seems to be rare and it was printed by Charles Goodall around 1898-1900. I don't know what the name of the deck is It could be a Bezique Deck unfortunately I could not find any pictures of the tuck box. I chose the name Phonograph 5 because I love the look of phonographs and I felt it fit the time period. I have some pictures of the original courts below along with my new card back and the tuck box. I was hoping to do two decks with color swaps. The second deck would be a stretch goal. I want to try 2 colors of foil on the tuck box, gold yellow and Green on the first deck. Gold yellow and Purple on the second deck. I don't know if I should stay with the diamond finish or if I should try the Elite finish for this deck. And I was thinking of using the same material as the chameleons by Asi Wind. Your thoughts are much appreciated. Thanks Landry
