UnitedCardists.com - The forum for Cardistry, Magic, Custom Decks and All Things Playing Cards.

That's what the entire edifice stands on, why my post reveals nothing new.
Whole enterprises exist via sound, thought, expectations, perceptions real, perceptions imagined, all constructed to make you think it was inherently your idea in the first place.
All because of that missing thing in your life.
Or that one.
Or this. Those.
O.
And these little beauties ....
Build #00000000000000000000002.
Never mind the quality .... feel the width !

All 8 colors now available at Collectable Cards, use the code below for some savings.

Art of Play now has these. HIGHFIVE will get you 5% off any purchase today only.

I have a bunch of extras of the new colors (Black, Purple Green and Red) @ 12 each plus shipping, but will not be able to ship until mid-January...send me a PM if you are interested

Now they launched a Pink & Black v2.0 of these on Kickstarter:

Now we know the name of the factory that EPCC and LPCC use:

Printed by Kuo Kau Paper Products Co.,Ltd (Same factory with EPCC. LPCC ）In Taiwan.

I like Glamor Nuggets decks, but the pink is to bright imo (like pink Fontaines....)
I'm not sure about backing this Project, maybe i wait for the aftermarket.

Does someone know more about the creator ?
In their Kickstarter description you can see this:
"The EPCS was founded in 2009 and now it is the most time-honored and professional producer of luxury, designer playing cards and magic props
EPCS features quick update and various products
We want to ensure one thing at EPCS and that is our customers, are happy."
Never heard of them before...... or did i miss something ?

Somehow i'm a bit confused about this Glamor Nugget decks.
Art of Play still sells most of the original colors but in the product description they say:
Limited Edition of 1,000. Due to copyright restrictions these will not be re-printed.

Why going to Kickstarter when there are copyright restrictions ? or is this just a marketing thing by Art of Play ?

They are just selling what's left of the stock. these are the same decks that you can buy on Art of Play. I already have 9 of the 11 colors not sure yet if i am getting those 2 new decks

If you think it stops here with pink and (another) black, you are crazy. They haven't even started on multi-color decks yet, look at the dual color designs on top from the Golden Nugget decks that they are probably working on right now:

Are the Glamor Nuggets and Golden Nuggets done by the same people?

I checked out the Kickstarter. If I could pledge just for the foil one, I would be in. But I can't, so meh. Pass for me.

They are not. Glamor Nuggets are a "tribute deck" to the classic Golden Nuggets. I have no idea who designed the classic (the credit would probably entirely go to whoever designed the Casino's logo)

Hermon Boernge was the artist who designed the iconic Golden Nugget sign whose image was used as the company logo and printed on the cards sometime around 1961-1965.
