GENUINE ARISTOCRAT CASINO PLAYING CARDS


Aristocrat Casino Excalibur I - Jumbo Index
Tin City Magic is pleased to announce that we have received a shipment of high quality, brand new, Aristocrat casino playing cards!

Made in the USA, these cards are unused, mint condition, factory sealed, wrapped in cellophane, uncanceled genuine casino playing cards on premium Aristocrat card stock.  These cards are designed for the demanding environment of a world-class casino and feature the classic diamond back, and the aces have pips in all four corners.  Assorted casinos in red or blue.

These cards are not normally available in brand new condition unless you are running a casino.   Typically when casinos sell these decks they clip the corners or drill a hole through the deck so it cannot be re-introduced to the casino.  However, these cards are exactly as shipped by the USPCC and have not been altered in any way.

The boxes feature the casino information panel where normally the information about the when and where the deck was used are recorded.   Since these decks are unplayed and the factory seal is intact, this panel is still blank.

These cards handle beautifully and will make a great appearance at your next card game, magic or gambling routine, or for your own personal playing card collection.   Get yours today at Tin City Magic.

THE DOOMSDAY DECK



Will the world end on 12-21-12?  We don't know, but we just noticed that our calendar here at Tin City Magic doesn't go past December.

This is a new, great, original, cleverly themed playing card design by magician Diamond Jim Tyler.  He creates things that are intrinsically magical to inspire your performances.  Things that allow you to reach the subconscious of your spectators.  Neuro-linguistic programming techniques and subliminal suggestions like the ones incorporated into this deck can cause the audience to respond more strongly to your magic.

The blood red and white card backs feature ancient tribal imagery based on the Mayan calendar, a compass rose, sugar skulls, and more.  The cards are poker-sized Bicycle stock with an "apocalyptic" finish.  USPCC calls the coating a "magic finish" which serious card workers prefer.  The deck features Bicycle faces so they can be implemented into standard Bicycle decks for various magic routines.

This limited edition collectible deck, manufactured in the USA by the United States Playing Card Company, includes two duplicate Jokers, a unique Ace of Spades, a blank-faced card, a double-backed card, and a secret one-way design.  

Buy them before the world ends on 12-21-12.  The clock is ticking!

BICYCLE VINTAGE DESIGN SERIES TANGENT DECK



Bicycle Playing Cards are the most popular brand of playing cards in the world.  They are the United States Playing Card Company's original brand and product.  Since 1885, Bicycle playing cards have been manufactured by the United States Printing Company, which, in 1894, became the United States Playing Card Company of Cincinnati.  "Bicycle" is a trademark of that company.  The USPCC has absorbed many other playing card manufacturers over the years and they have grown to be the premiere playing card manufacturer.

Bicycle Playing Cards are the preferred cards of many magicians, card players, and other card enthusiasts.  Collecting Bicycle playing cards is also very popular.  People enjoy the beautifully rendered back designs that typically include bicycles, wheels, or other modes of transportation in the composition.

The Bicycle Vintage Design Series recreates historic Bicycle playing card designs from the last 125 years.  The Tangent back design, used from 1907-1939, was the first design to use the 4 winged version of the American Wheelman Emblem.  These cards are printed using contemporary Bicycle card stock and the Air-Cushion finish so they feel and handle exactly like a modern Bicycle deck.  

Available now at Tin City Magic.

SMITH No. 2 DECK



Tin City Magic is incredibly pleased to offer these exceptional playing cards produced by the Conjuring Arts Research Center.
The Smith No. 2 Blue design is amazing.  This white and blue deck is a unique hybrid design that can be used for gambling routines and sleights, as well as effects that require or benefit from white borders.  The Smith No. 2 Blue commemorative deck was designed by Guy Hollingworth (with additional face artwork by Dan White).  They are printed on exclusive Bee Casino paper and are made with a special coating to ensure the best handling.  The cards are traditional cut, the same way as Richard Turner has his cut, so they faro and shuffle extremely well.  These may be our best handling cards and will blow you away.
This Smith No. 2 Blue Deck is named in honor of Marshall D. Smith, the illustrator of the seminal card book The Expert at the Card Table.  The overall Bee-like pattern is actually made up of tiny reproductions of the hands in the illustrations of the great card classic.  The Smith No. 2 design has a white back with blue illustrations of the hands.  The color reversal is dramatic.
These decks also use the original faces used by U.S. Playing Card Co. in 1902.  These great faces have somewhat larger pips and somewhat smaller indices which combine to create an unusually attractive face.
The head playing card researcher of US Playing Card Co. supervised all aspects of production of these cards, including overseeing production of printing the backs, embossing, crushing, finishing, and the final cutting and casing at the U.S. Playing Card Company factory in the USA.
We truly believe that these are the finest cards that US Playing Card can produce at the present time.  The cards were printed in an extremely limited run and they are sold out at the manufacturer.  We are sold out of the red decks and only have a few blue decks left.  If you need some of these to perform with, practice with, or add to your collection, this is the time to get them.

BICYCLE GOLD SEAL PLAYING CARDS


Return to the Gold Standard!

Richard Turner's brand new Gold Seal Bicycle Cards are The Gold Standard in Bicycle Playing Cards and are now available at Tin City Magic.  The choice for every professional magician, gambler, card mechanic, and playing card aficionado in search of a great deck of cards.  These cards look exactly like standard Bicycle cards, but are manufactured differently, subjected to more stringent specifications, and held to a higher quality standard.


Quality

Each deck of Gold Seal Bicycle Cards is constructed in the USA by the USPCC using their finest stock.  The manufacturing process is carefully monitored to ensure the cards are printed and cut properly with even margins and uniform finishing.

They are stamped to a caliper and thickness that facilitates classic moves like bottom and center dealing.  They are also embossed to a depth that does not break down the structural integrity of the card, yet still allows each card to breathe properly, thereby reducing the gum-up and hangers often caused by atmospheric conditions, finger moisture, and contaminants.

Each card is also traditionally cut which facilitates many moves and shuffles used by performers and serious card players.


The Traditional Cut Process

Unlike most of the cards manufactured today, the cutting blade used in traditionally cut cards starts at the face of each card and punches through to its back.  As a result, a sharp edge is created on the backside of each card and a rounded edge, which facilitates a flawless weave during each shuffle, is formed on the card's face.

Traditionally cut cards ensure that card players and magicians can easily interlace the cards to produce crisp, clean shuffles, especially with some of the more intricate shuffling techniques like the one-handed shuffle and the faro shuffle, both in-hand, and on the table.

For over 100 years traditional card cutting was the norm, but the process was changed about fifteen years ago.  Casinos demand traditionally cut cards, and so should magicians and serious card players.  You will be amazed at the difference between these cards and ones sold at normal retail outlets.

If you demand the very best, be sure to look for the Gold Seal and gold label certifying that your deck is "Traditionally Cut for the Professional." 


The Deck

The deck features standard Bicycle faces and Bicycle Rider backs, and includes two traditional matching Jokers, as well as a blank card with the Rider back to use in reverse fans or magic routines.  Performers of gambling-related acts will also find the blank card useful as a cut-card when performing Greek-deals and other moves requiring a nondescript bottom card.  

A deck of Gold Seal Bicycle Cards simply feels right in the hand, shuffles flawlessly right out of the box, and will enhance the performance of professional magicians everywhere.  Get yours today at Tin City Magic.

DE'VO LIMITED EDITION BLOOD METAL BLADES DECK



This could possibly be the most awesome deck ever made.  No photos can do this deck justice. 

This collector's version of the Blood Metal Blades deck in dark red and silver features dual foil embossed tucks, and silver gilded edges on the cards.   The foil tucks are simple incredible to hold as the light dances around the box reflecting surfaces.  The silver gilded edges of the cards themselves are also highly reflective and make them stand out from every other deck in your collection.   

Made in the USA, this deck is the first ever to use this stock and finish with gilding printed by the USPCC.  The Blood Metal Edition is definitely one of the most beautiful and unusual decks on the market and a must for card collectors and card lovers.

There are only 4000 of these incredible decks available worldwide.  The deck is already sold out at the manufacturer.  Don't miss your chance to own one of the most amazing looking decks ever created!  In stock now at Tin City Magic.  They won't last long.

ERDNASE DECKS at TIN CITY MAGIC


erdnase

The seminal work on modern card magic is "The Expert at the Card Table" by S. W. Erdnase.  A book that is as relevant today as when it was written over 100 years ago.  Tin City Magic has several editions of the book in stock, as well as a great DVD set that explores the material in the book on video.

It also includes a couple of fascinating extra cards.  One is a reprint of the original title page of the book.  The other is a reprint of the famous Erdnase preface in which he praises the fine art of card manipulation but then admits that the real reason for writing the book is because the author “needs the money.” 

A wonderful deck of cards, of special interest to magicians and collectors.  Limited edition.  Manufactured in the USA by the United States Playing Card Company.

We've sold out of this deck in the past.  This is likely the last batch of these cards we will have.  Get yours before they're gone!

Bee%20RJRTC.JPG

These rare Bee Playing Cards are known as Bee Watermelons due to their distinctive back design featuring white borders and bright colors.  These gorgeous decks are available now at Tin City Magic in both red and blue backs.  We also have a small quantity of matching dice.  Made in the USA by the USPCC. 

The card boxes have the back design on both the front and back, and the sides of the boxes have the four card suits in yellow.   

All faces are Bee standards, including the Ace of Spades and the 2 Jokers.  The cards fan beautifully!  

A very desirable deck of cards for performing card magic and manipulations, for all standard card games, or for card collectors.  The supply of these is virtually gone -- they are in the hands of people who know what they are and what they are worth.  Don't get stung -- get your Bee Watermelons today!

MASSA PLAYING CARD DECK

Massa.JPG


The Massa Playing Card Deck is a visually striking deck and a joy to handle. 

These elegant cards are perfect for performing magic, playing card games, or just for admiring their beautiful design.  Massa playing cards are produced by Casino Playing Cards LTD, a small independent card manufacturer.  They have an Air-Cushion type finish, although they have significantly less "dimples" than the USPCC's standard Air-Cushion finish.  The stock is slightly thinner and softer than a standard Bicycle deck, and the pips have darker colored ink.  They also have a subtle one way back, great for magicians.  We have a very limited quantity of these new decks and once they are gone there will be no more.

So make sure to grab them now at Tin City Magic!
