Is it me or do some of those images appear "lifted" from gangster movies?
Well, at least it's been a LITTLE while since we've seen a gangster deck. I mean really tiny... Miniscule...

New decks added limited to 1250 each

How does one add decks to a campaign that closed over a week ago? :))
(You didn't give us a link.)

Don are you a bit tired? The link is there and has not moved or changed Check the original post
And the campaign has not closed. It still has 19 days to go

I love that they have a humidor. Are the humidors custom to the size of playing cards or did they just get wholesale of a humidor box? I would love to have a custom fitted humidor for my special decks!

I actually am recovering from a viral infection. I mistook the "Jul" in the closing date for "Jun".

So tell me, are you a two-decks-a-day smoker, or just one? :))

The LE tucks are just horrible.

Just that? NOTHING else? :))

I'm a sucker for art deco design, so I pledged for a Gold and the Empire LE. It could be better or more ornate, but I'll take what I can get these days! I'm not fully sold on the court art style, but there's enough elsewhere that I'm in for a couple. Not sure 'horrible' is justified, they are good enough, although in most cases I don't think it's enough to justify the dollars for a simple tuck swap and coin.
-
This is the first deck which I skipped the deck but was rather enticed by the canvas artwork instead. ??? The back and name's just doesn't link with the art. I get that the interior of the tuck box is made to look like the lines on a suit but it looks weird imo. Plus I reckon that it'll look more slick if the front of the tuck was unlabeled but I do get that people like to collect 'Bicycle' branded decks.

Getting closer.....

I'm late in the card collecting game. Any of those stork or cotton club ones available directly through you?

The Get MADE! playing cards haven't been released yet. Those exciting images are from Update 37 (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/crookedkings/get-made-mob-themed-uspcc-bicycle-playing-card-dec/posts/1104224) of the Get MADE! Mob-Themed USPCC BICYCLE® Playing Card Decks (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/crookedkings/get-made-mob-themed-uspcc-bicycle-playing-card-dec/description) kickstarter campaign. It looks like in early February the decks will begin finding their way to backers with retail following close behind.
-
That's what I figured, but I was seeing if I could weasel my way into a deal before they are retail :)

Yeah - they might not even be printed yet, as we're only seeing tuck boxes and sticker seals so far... Nothing to "weasel" out of anyone, really!
I'm just curious if the creator cleared those brand names. The Stork Club's been shuttered a number of years now, but someone may hold rights to the name, and the Cotton Club is still alive and well in Harlem, albeit not at its original location. Where I'm sitting right now, it's either 4.1 miles away by car or 3.3 miles away by walking.

They've started shipping!
