Title: White Lions Deck - Red Back
Post by: asdjones on August 09, 2019, 05:03:44 PM

Hello,
I just rec'd first White Lion deck Series B Red...love 'em
I have figured out the marking system, but have noticed two things I have never seen mentioned and wonder if significant.
The borders are not quite even...just an accident or significant? Two slightly fatter borders. (and two slimmer ones obviously)
Also noticed that ONLY the 7s have a special marking. Right above the quad that tells suit there is a half spade without the heavy black double center line, but ONLY on the 7s. Anyone know why?

The border issue is a common problem with USPC decks.  Sometimes they have a little trouble centering their cuts.

"Special" marking?  The entire deck is marked...  What's special about the markings on the sevens that makes them genuinely different from the rest of the deck?
