What’s the first piece of origami you ever made? It will most probably be paper airplanes. Penguin Magic‘s Bicycle Glider Back deck is a fun FULLY custom deck of playing cards featuring origami-inspired artwork in a striking blue colorway.
The back design features the paper gliders in an appealing geometric layout against the blue background. The traditional-looking back also contains a devious but easy-to-learn coded marking system that allows you to identify the suit and value of each card.
According to Penguin Magic’s product page,
We sent a sample deck to one of the world’s foremost experts on marked cards, but we didn’t explain the system to him. His first response was, “I tried to work it out with the riffle test – couldn’t see ANYTHING – I did eventually work it out but d*** that is well hidden. I was starting to wonder if you were winding me up!”
The court and spot cards have stylized 2D designs that look as if they’ve been folded out of paper, and the whole package is contained in a tuck box with a custom seal.
