These were released I believe in June, 2004. 100 sets of 5 lithographs. I purchased my set alooong time ago and have set 41/100. I am wondering if anyone here also owns these. I have pictures of them in my Card Collection album on Facebook.

Really interested in seeing if anyone else here owns a set also. If so, where would you value it. Seeing I have never seen them on the market or really ever discussed I would imagine not much but to some maybe a whole lot.

You might want to direct that question to one of the auction houses that deal in magic-related artifacts.  They could give you a more solid idea of the value.


They're quite beautiful, by the way.  I hope you're only planning to value them for your homeowner's/apartment renter's insurance...  It would be a shame to sell them.

I remember seeing these when they were for sale, at that point I didn't have a paypal account and by the time I did they sold out, they look very nice though. I'm sure some hardcore handlordz fans would want them.

 Jerry Cestkowski "The Flourishman" is the earliest known magician to specialize in card flourishes. He is an authoritative figure in the Cardistry/XCM/Flourishing community and his book "The encyclopedia of Playing Card Flourishes" (EoPCF) is known as the "Bible"(quoted from unitedcardist.com). He's the guy who does the first few YouTube vids showing the de'vo blades deck. Here's a vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3EWzpcAa5A&feature=related

No worries, I am not selling them. I was just interested in potential value.
