Product Description
Rumour has it that this stunning design was found by an employee of the United States Playing Card Company when searching through old artwork. It is thought that this design could be very old but has never been in production. This deck is sure to become a real collectors deck. Although the Dragon Back Deck is printed on Bicycle Stock and has standard faces the colouring is anything but standard. The red pips are darker than standard Bike Cards and the court cards are in green, gold & red giving a muted, antique appearance.
The back design is very appealing, again in muted colours and it incorporates a one way design feature especially useful for magicians.
The Dragon Back Deck also includes one double backed card, one coloured Joker, one standard Guarantee Joker and an advertising card for the other USPCC Brands.

These cards are fantastic,they look and feel great.I really like the red pips as they are a dark red and give the deck a classy look.They come with a double backer which is handy for tricks and I've noticed a very subtle one way up marking to the cards.They are probably my favourite cards.

There's something about these cards that really give off an aura of magic. I perform mainly in the street at night, around the clubs, so tricks need to be hard hitting, basic, and not too flashy. The secret to these is that, their presentation in the box is not too elaborate, all the magic comes from the moment you pull them out. The dark reds, copper greens and gold accents breathe life into these cards, but the suits are still the same design everyone knows, just with the alteration of added colour to the robes of the court cards. The more I look at them the more they want me to use them, and here was me thinking I was the one casting spells.

If you are looking for a pack of cards that will give your magic tricks an added level of flair to impress the audience, look no further than this pack right here. I took a gamble in buying this one based solely on the back design, and I was not disappointed in the least! The design on the back looks fantastic when fanning and spreading the cards, and the cards glide incredibly well between your hands. Seriously, I've handled many new packs before, but nearly dropped these after taking them out of the pack. They are THAT slick. In addition, this deck comes with one double backed gaff card for use in your performances.
Bottom line, if you are looking for a great deck to use for magic tricks, THIS IS IT.
As a general magic rule though (and forgive me if you already knew this), but please only touch these with CLEAN HANDS! If you do not, you will find that the oils on your hands will rub off on the cards and cause them to lose that slick feeling (eventually causing them to clump)...

Attractive deck of cards

What's to say? This is a quality deck of playing cards, coated and thick. They aren't the super high-end casino cards, but they don't cost what the casino cards cost either. Very pretty design. I hate to say it, but my kids make wallets out of playing cards and this is a nicer design than your run-of-the-mill bicycle deck!
