Tactical Field, Bicycle Playing Cards


Tactical Field, Bicycle Playing Cards. This deck was produced By The United States Playing Card Company for the military. The box comes sealed with a dark green cellophane. It has a standard "Bicycle" Back that comes in a dark Army "Green" or "Black" but here is the twist, There is no way of knowing which color is in what box until you open the box. I guess when you spend all your time risking your life to defend the freedom of others you could give a shit less about the "Color" on the back of a deck of cards! Thank You to all that have served! The faces of the cards are also standard but the "Red" used in the printing is a darker red, not the standard "Red" in most "Bicycle" decks. The best thing for performers is that stock that was used on these decks was a much better quality then normal. They feel much more like a "Tally-Ho" then a bicycle. I do not believe these decks are still being made even for the Military. I know they are getting very, very hard to find. This deck is a true gem to perform with or to collect.

Raider Deck, Bicycle Playing Cards


The Raider Deck, Ok now we are talking! I have not been this excited about a new deck is a while, a long while, to dam long as a matter for fact! But this deck is everything a quality deck should be and I would buy the folks at "Magic Network" a drink if I ever run into them because they did a great job on this deck. The back design is sexy! The court cards have a color combination that just pops. Many other decks in the past have had a color scheme on court cards that make me vomit a little in my mouth every time I look at them. But ever person that I have shown these to says "WOW" The deck quality is very high I am talking about right up there with "Black Tigers" and "Ghost" just to name a few of the high quality decks, Speaking of "Ghost" just for a side note: The "White Ghost" Deck is one of my most favorite decks ever, but I almost never perform with them because of what they did to the "Pips." They have the red "pip" cards have red and "black" pips on them. When you show someone a "Heart" card with that deck, the heart is "Black" I think that this is very cool, but most people can not follow a routine, when they see there card is a jack of hearts and the heart is "Black". There mind just went out to lunch. Check this link if you have no idea what I am talking about. http://www.the1eyedjack.com/servlet/the-4/White-Ghost-Deck/Detail.
Sorry that was a long side track. But you will not have that problem with the "Raider Deck" its a black card with "Red" and "White" pips, People will understand that the "Spade is "White" because its on a "Black"card and the deck has some real cool jokers and a "Double Backer" what else could you want? Price? Well that is right too, You will be hard pressed to find a deck of this quality at this price.( they sell them cheap to me, so I sell them cheap to you) The "Raider Deck" has made my top 10 favorite decks!
