I'm in for sure, lots of family and friends connected to the Army, will be first time I go for at least a brick.

Will any proceeds be donated to Veterans Organizations?  Sure seems like this would be a great way to raise some awareness and help our vets.

Too bad you didn't get it earlier, would've been awesome to launch a campaign yesterday, June 14th, the Army's Birthday.  I know myself and a lot of my friends that are former Army are really looking forward to this deck.

It's fixed.

I'm really disappointed in those faces.  It might as well be Robocycle 2.0...

Agree 100%.  I can't remember if I ordered 2 or 3 decks.  After seeing those pics, if it's just 2 that I ordered I'll keep one wrapped and the other not even bother opening the cellophane.  Oh well, they can't all be winners I guess.

Got Vintage?  That's what got me into collecting cards originally though I don't have anything major in that field. 

I really like the Folio Society deck illustrated by Jon Burton.  It can be found on eBay but expect to pay a fair price unless you find a seller in England willing to ship to the US.

$60,000 in 10 hours is awe-inspiring.  FUNDED!!

Looks like it'll be another stellar project.  Funny how the uncut tucks are more expensive than an uncut card sheet.  I barely missed out on the $11 level, clicked on it only to be told it's unavailable at one of the following screens.  Maybe one of these days I'll be deemed lucky enough I guess.  But I'm in for 2 of everything right now.


Congratulations on the launch Jackson, you're a shrewd businessman and a brilliant artist living the American Dream.  Gotta love it.

You know I will have the link minutes after it goes live

Yeah, but now instead of a nice day out at the range or the workshop, I'll be like a rabid monkey on Heisenberg's meth wearing out my F5 button with multiple browser windows open for the better part of the day in order to get a pledge in.   

Wow.  Just wow.   Any inkling on a timeframe?

I found them on eBay and I think I got a pretty good deal . The seller had several other auctions listed and they were very knowledgable about what they were selling, so I am guessing they may even be affiliated with this forum. Anyway, I was following several other auctions ending around the same time that I was outbid on; including an 1850 dougherty deck that skyrocketed in the last few hours, and this was the last one. I am interested in learning more about the deck, but I'm not going to research too much until my Hochman Encyclopedia and supplement arrives later this week (I finally sprung the money for them). Next up, a 52+ joker membership, but lets not be too hasty.

I thought it looked familiar, I was bidding on it too.  Guess you were the guy I cussed out for outbidding me.       So, do you want to trade, my dairy deck for the empress one?   

Picked up a nifty bridge size advertising deck today for Townsend West dairy products.  AoS is marked 1942, bridge pts card has copyright 1935, so that sounds about right.

My true feelings regarding Ho Chi Minh and anything celebrating him or his ways can not be voiced on a board such as this.  May he rot in hell.

One of us one of us, gooble gobble gooble gobble. 

Looks more like the person is marketing the bumper stickers, hats & tote bags than the 2 decks of cards.  Sorry to say but this project is doomed for failure.

Picked these up off ebay, from what I can tell they're a '59 vintage.  Z code on the AoS with a 1 tax-stamp.  They're very nice condition, the only issue is that they came from a smoker's home.
