This July is going to be the hottest month yet with the decks being shipped! Best to show them instead of telling.

Hey everyone,

Bicycle Burton promotional deck

I didn't add this to my collection, $120 (Canadian) is a lot, but this is the 2nd time in a few years I saw this deck for sale, thought I would post the add maybe someone wants to snag it, I almost bought it but spent way to much this month =(

Is there a thread for good deals? if not maybe we should make one

Just got these in the mail from Gambler's Warehouse:

Nothing says 4th of July than the British Monarchy.

Though on another note, this has been the first Kickstarter project in awhile that has delivered early. These were estimated for August!

Posted: **Fri Jul 03, 2015 11:44 pm**

That's interesting. I was a backer of the British Monarchy deck and I haven't heard a thing from them.

Posted: **Sat Jul 04, 2015 4:42 pm**

I don't mean to hijack but I have a little more information on the British Monarchy Tally-ho deck in case anyone else was curios:

Gambler's Warehouse is doing fulfillment / shipping on these. Yes the cards are ready ahead of time, so domestic orders will arrive soon, followed by international orders. Thanks!

Thanks and now back to pictures of cool cards.

I know that we aren't supposed to use seller-supplied pics of cards in this thread, but with my scanner still out of commission, this is the only way that I can share this deck here.

I recently received an email which read, in part:

A new pack of playing cards “TRANSSIBERIAN EXPRESS”

5771-mile-long Trans-Siberian Railway was built across the continent in the end of the 19. century. After they completed the construction the most luxurious train in the world started its journeys. The train had the pianos in saloons and baths in the compartments. The pack is devoted to this express.

The “Az-Art” published this set jointly with Spielkarten Galerie Schweigert. Famous Russian artist Veronika Nikolaeva is the author of the pack of cards and their concept. In the past she worked for the legendary Leningrad Color Printing plant, the largest publisher of playing cards in the 20. century.

The cards are issued in two versions: in Russian and in English with different jokers. The indexes are Russian in both versions. This is a limited edition of 300 copies in each language.

This lot contains the English version of the deck. (With Joker Cossack)
Gold edges

At the back of the cards one can find a symbol of Siberia – the rarest Amur leopard. Only about 30 of them still live in the wilderness.

The “Az-Art” printed the pack on high-quality cards pressboard with black glue strata. You can sweep the deck with golden edge offsetted in full color with gold.

attached were images of cards from the deck, including this one:

I loved the deck's concept and design, so I ordered one despite its being pricey ($70, IIRC).

I received it promptly, but have yet to be able to open it, due to health issues, but still wanted to share it here on UC.

Very nice! Love the art style!

I totally agree with Dan. Righteous deck, RJ!

Posted: **Tue Jul 07, 2015 12:38 pm**

I had that one on my ebay watch list but, hesitated because of the price. Love the style. Nice catch!

The Vivido deck has started arriving in North America.

Hmm.

Do they have a right-handed one available as well?

The collection is finally starting to take shape. The No. 17 and Seasons decks were purchased from nECrOMaNCeD. The Moku Hanga is my first Kickstarter deck and if I had to do it again, I'd probably pass. The Fitzgerald Casino deck came from Goodwill at $0.79. It's sealed though I don't know if it is the original cellophane or not - I'm guessing not. Nothing spectacular here but I'm proud of these additions and am starting to feel like a real collector.

Nice, flash!

Offhand, I don't think that I have ANY of those.

Just came in today, not the greatest picture but the decks are in perfect condition. I purchased these at Art of Play , bought 2 yellow Chinatown decks ($20 U.S) because I don't have them in my collection and I see multiple postings of these going for $100 Canadian on EBay, got them before its to late and there sold out.

Ohh and Dan and Dave have there summer variety box out now, just a heads up if no one knows, im passing, its an ok box just have most of them

Posted: **Mon Jul 13, 2015 9:29 pm**

Some of the things I've acquired recently. I really love the Rarebits. Fultons are not the best handling wise, but I love the design. Virignia slims will always be one of my favorite decks ever and I will continue purchasing them when I catch a good deal. NOC's are NOC's .

One thing that I have not seen is Uusi's Swedish 2-deck cypress box from their Classic decks campaign. It might be because they are just getting delivered, but here you go:

Made by Peter from the water tower boards salvaged from the Swedish museum in Chicago. Those which. Don't know, "Uusi" is Finnish for "new".

I have heard people ask about Lotrek's Venexiana Dark coins, but I don't think it has been shown here.

I guess the fillum in your camera was made in Australia ....

S Korea. What is have noticed is that phpBB ignores the "orientation" in pictures.

If you click on the pictures that are disoriented, they display correctly - for me, anyway.

Posted: **Tue Jul 14, 2015 5:54 am**

Lotrek's Venexia Dark Coins look fabulous from any perspective.
Tho' even better in ones possession, 'course ....
If what don't kill you makes you stronger ....
Young Lotrek must be near indestructible.
WhataGuy .....

Sherman my friend Thanks for the overseas deck I love the 10th anniversary Toto's deck. Those boxes you included are very cool also

The Bicycle Laundry deck is similar but better than the Rilakkuma deck because of the repeating courts but the courts are two way.

Here's the only one some people might not recognize, though Eoghann posted it back in March.

SpaceQuest courts + small.jpg

I see a shiny prismatic tuckbox there

Nope - not for me, anyway.

Bought this deck from a guy in Japan, now I have both Bicycle Bape decks, the 2011 and this one, I wonder why they never made a 2012 deck or I just don't know about it.

Posted: **Fri Jul 17, 2015 10:01 pm**

Got a package in today and as I was opening it I thought it'd be my Malam deck. Nope. Something else entirely. I'm VERY happy. Magnificent work, Loreno!

Posted: **Fri Jul 17, 2015 10:18 pm**

Sick. Hoping beyond hope that mine gets here tomorrow.

Edit: Tracking just updated. It's here.
