May 2020 marks 5 years of producing playing cards for the team at Joker and the Thief headed by James Milaras. To celebrate the milestone, the 5th and final edition of Joker and the Thief’s popular was funded on Kickstarter last year.
According to James,
We poured our hearts and souls into the brand over the last five years and have produced some spectacular designs since our very first crowdfunding campaign. We decided to produce one last deck of the original Joker and the Thief design before moving onto new frontiers.
The fifth edition features an elegant holly green Pantone inks, complimented by deep red inks and rich copper metallic inks. The contrasting yet earthy color tones blend beautifully together.
The themes and connotations from the back design are consistent throughout the deck: The Ace of Spades is unique, bold, and iconic of this design. The court cards are all fully custom meticulously illustrated with beautiful details.
Expertly crafted by our letterpress studio based in Southern California, the tuck box is easily the best in the series. It features for the first time heavy embossing coupled with distinct satin copper foil – adding unparalleled dimension to this design that past versions just aren’t able to match.
Only 1500 decks of this design will ever exist with less than 800 decks Remain. Get it NOW on jokerandthethief.com for $15.
