United States Playing Card Company on trick decks

The United States Playing Card Company produces some of the best playing cards in the world. From Bicycle and Bee to Aviator and KEM, the one thing that everyone who knows anything about cards knows is that the USPCC produces great quality cards that are easily recognizable and are perfectly normal.

Now, it used to be (and has been on and off for a while) that you could order trick decks of cards from the USPCC, but most of the time nowadays, you can't. It seems that being the top card company in the world and selling gimmicked decks doesn't really mesh with corporate, and I can understand that. You don't want people thinking that the cards you provide to casino's could be marked.

But apparently, the USPCC is teaming up with David Blaine and are releasing three specialty decks on October 31st.

That's right, the middle is Blaine as the King of Spades.

Now these decks are going to be produced on standard Bicycle style paper, complete with the air-cushion finish we all know and love but are going to have Blaine's "split spade" style back. The cards look beautiful and being factory printed would be a great addition to anyone's collection (or repitoire).

They really are pretty.

 So make sure to keep your eyes peeled for these cards coming out on Halloween. Original Split Spades (red, blue and autographed) decks can be found here, and the full article on the new cards can be found here.
