I never really saw the point in collecting uncuts and putting them in a poster frame.

But OMG, These are amazing. This is the uncut collection from the same guy bringing us the Seasons Decks.

AMAZING!

Really, I am blown away by these!

You can check them out here

I need to find out where these were done.

To my knowledge the uncut sheets do not come with a title on it like "Dan & Dave Smoke and Mirrors," did he add that himself? If anyone can confirm that'd be awesome because they look awesome and I would be much more interested if they do have them.

Going along the same line of thought... are they actual uncut sheets or reprints? It looks like a reprint with a fancy border around it. I like the idea/style of it, but I would be cautious when plunking down money for it though.

I am dumb, they are for a personal collection not for sale. Oops!

CBJ · « **Reply #12 on:** November 05, 2011, 11:32:52 AM »

The panels behind these uncuts were designed and printed by the owner of this collection.

He just happens to be Alex Chin, the creator of the Seasons Playing Cards.

So, is there any surprise they look AMAZING!?

I wish I had that Black Ghost 1st Edition uncut... I know just where I'd put it!

He's not allowed to sell them without paying royalties to the companies.

But if somehow he payed the royalties.. the poster backs would sell like hotcakes!

Whenever you sell something that has trademarked company logos, etc... you must pay a royalty, and get permission from that company.

That's the way the world goes around...

So, this is not an uncut but is framed! I decided to put some of the more interesting card backs, jokers, gaffs etc into a frame to hang up in my office. (I don't do magic or play games, don't need any of those extra cards so figured this is better than in a drawer somewhere).

Just used a little foam core, some matte board and a cheap frame from the craft store and arranged 25 cards on it. I think it turned out pretty nice. Of course, as soon as I get more decks I'll have to do another one...

It's great the Bicycle Uncuts are so cheap, instead of getting two "high-end" decks, you can just get one of these. Now framing the sheets are another story.

You must have made this recently. It has the Fantastique deck in it.

Looks amazing.

How did you get the cards to look so evenly spaced

CBJ

Paul Carpenter · « **Reply #29 on:** November 07, 2011, 01:01:22 PM »

You are right, I just put it together this weekend. The overall size is 18"x24" and I found that a 5 x 5 grid worked nicely and left some space on the sides (approximately 2 3/8"). I'm a graphic designer by trade, so I just did a little measuring to get the top and bottom corner cards in the right spots, used a straightedge to get the top row in place, and then eyeballed the rest. I used "Scotch Photo Splits" which are these tiny adhesive squares, I think used by people that scrapbook, to stick the cards to the board. They seem strong enough to hold it, but can peel off without major damage to the cards.

Wasn't too hard to put together and turned out nicely I think. Could probably put another one together for $20-25 or so, with just a little time for cutting the matte board and doing some measuring. I just need more decks now, so that I can get 25 extra cards worthy of displaying.

Here's a few other pics, detail views of this little thing, should anyone be interested...

I really like the idea here. I think if I were to do something similar, I would keep all the cards facing one way. Maybe do one with backs and one with fronts, but not both in the same frame.

Those actually belong to Alex Chin (the guy designing the Seasons Decks). The frame is a poster frame from Walmart. The backing is something that Alex designed and went to a printer to print. Almost like a poster. Then he attached the uncut... BOOyah!!!! Awesomeness!

He has a blog, I will give you the link when you need, you will find the address (and many pics) on his blog.

Besides, thanks. Do you know Taiwan also known as "Formosa"? In 1544, when Portuguese sailors passed Taiwan, they jotted down in the ship log "Ilha Formosa" (beautiful island). Now some people here like to use Formosa instead of Taiwan.

Those frames look very nice! I like the Style Deck uncut the best though. Is the Deck One uncut bent in some places? Because it kinda looks like it.

Sweet! Those really look great! They look even better right next to each other.

Were those custom framed? If not, where did you get the frames? Thanks

Those were a 24x30 frame from Michaels, normally $20 but on sale for a sweet $7. They have real glass, not plastic and I bought a couple sheets of black matte board to put behind the sheets. So less than $20 each this time.

Awesome! I got my plastic, decent looking ones at Michael's for $20. Next time, I'll look for that one you got, or something similar.
