Aside form NBA cards, I'm also a budding playing card collector. No idea if anyone is interested but I'm going to post up some pictures of decks and uncut sheets that I will have coming in! 

 

First shipment in soon, feel free to contribute if you're a playing card collector too!

First shipment in, I've got the Black Edition Artisans, Monarchs and a nice colourful Bicycle Pluma deck. Only going for sealed decks in my collection, so I probably need to grab two of each to actually see the cards inside! 

 

But don't the Artisan and Monarch tuck boxes look so fab?  B)  B)  B)

Nice thread.

 

I have dabbled in playing cards myself:

 

FEDERAL 52 set by Jackson Robinson. Shame that I did not pledge on KS and got some signed decks.

Ah ok nice. I guess you could say I do, not rare ones I guess but when I see some on holiday or something I grab them. I got them to play poker with, some got used, most haven't


Cheers,

Sadly I missed the KS project, however recent Jackson Robinson was selling the left overs on his KIng Project Site. I managed to pickup the decks there. They are in the post so hopefully arrive soon and I can share :)

Here's some of mine, nothing special but as I said, I mainly grab them when I go on holidays, get as gifts or to use at poker nights

 

 

 

I think these 2 were from casinos in the US that were being demolished

I'm a total noob when it comes to playing cards, so call me ignorant, but what is the big deal about stuff like the Bycicle ones and the others found on KS!? Like aren't they just some deck though up and made by some random person!? What's so special about them!?
