ANYONE Unveils Museum Playing Cards Featuring Classic Artworks

Anyone Worldwide has announced on social media their latest release- Museum Playing Cards, a new art-focused deck that transforms a standard 52-card pack into a miniature gallery of classic paintings.

The deck features thirteen artworks distributed across fifty-two cards, with each rank contributing to a larger image that is revealed when the cards are assembled together. The concept turns every suit and rank into part of a connected visual composition rather than a standalone card.

Among the works previewed are John Frederick Kensett's Beacon Rock, Newport Harbor (1857) and Adriaen Coorte's Still Life with Asparagus and Red Currants (1696), highlighting the deck's focus on museum-quality historical art.

According to their social media post, the first edition was released exclusively through the brand's newsletter last weekend. No price was mentioned in that post.

Virtuoso Paths Playing Cards Announced

After teasing the deck over the weekend, Huron Low announced the pre-order of Virtuoso Paths. This deck takes a different approach from many modern custom decks, focusing less on flashy visuals and more on the philosophy behind cardistry itself.

Named Virtuoso Paths, the deck explores the idea that progress in cardistry comes through curiosity, repetition, and exploration rather than chasing recognition or results. This concept is reflected throughout the design, with card backs that change across the deck to create a sense of movement and progression when riffling, spreading, or flourishing the cards.

Several hidden design elements reinforce the theme, including paths that merge together, interlocking shapes that form stars, and custom court cards featuring a symbolic ring at the center of each character.

Beyond the artwork, Virtuoso has placed a strong emphasis on handling. The team spent over a year experimenting with paper stocks, coatings, and cutting methods to create what they describe as one of their most comfortable and controllable decks to date. The deck also includes four extra "star cards" that can be added to adjust the deck's thickness and stiffness to personal preference.

Priced at $15 per deck, Virtuoso Paths is available as a limited printed-to-order release, with production beginning after the pre-order window closes and delivery expected in September 2026.

First Look: The NEW Virtuoso Playing Cards

Have a look at the new deck! This new Virtuoso (still unnamed at the time of writing) deck marks a philosophical shift for the Virtuoso series, moving away from outward spectacle and focusing instead on the quieter, more personal side of cardistry. According to the email newsletter by Huron Low, the new deck is inspired by the idea that meaningful creativity emerges through exploration, repetition, and curiosity rather than performance, the deck celebrates the journey behind every breakthrough.

Unlike previous Virtuoso releases, the design is intentionally understated. Rather than revealing itself immediately through fans and spreads, many visual elements remain hidden until discovered through use, reflecting the concept of gradual exploration that inspired the project. Individual cards offer only fragments of the larger design, with the full picture emerging over time.

The deck embodies the belief that cardistry’s most memorable creations are rarely the result of chasing recognition or viral success. Instead, they arise from countless small steps, experiments, and moments of intentional wandering. Through its subtle design language and thoughtful symbolism, this new Virtuoso  deck serves as a tribute not to the destination, but to the process that leads there.

Cardistry-Con Orbit V4 Playing Cards

The Cardistry-Con Orbit V4 Playing Cards (CC V4) mark a bold return, created exclusively for the New York Cardistry-Con last year. The CCV4 deck makes its presence felt with confidence and attitude, drawing directly from the city’s unmistakable visual language.

Set against a deep black background, the back design features metallic ink hand-style tags that pop with energy, echoing the raw expression of street art. Taxi yellow accents run throughout the deck, paired with inspiration pulled from the New York subway system and graffiti culture, giving the cards an unmistakably urban edge.

The matte tuck box keeps things clean and understated, while subtle marking and metallic ink details add both function and flair.

Printed by the United States Playing Card Company, the CC V4s are traditionally cut on premium thin-crushed stock with an Air-Cushion finish. Limited to just 3,000 decks. Available for $23 on Orbit Decks.

Exit Playing Cards by TCC Fashion

Taking inspiration from the iconic “Little Green Man” of emergency exit signs, TCC Fashion's Exit Playing Cards reimagine this universal symbol as a striking new design language for cardistry, magic, and play. The running figure, urgent and unmistakable, brings instant recognition and bold visual impact to the deck.

Inside, the cards themselves blaze with a vivid neon green that bursts under UV light, making every flourish or shuffle feel alive. Indices are bold and functional for smooth gameplay, while the pips feature the running figure in motion. 

When fanned, riffled or cuts, these animated pips create a surprising sense of movement, adding a dynamic element to every performance.

The tuck case shimmers with shifting green foil, glowing at different angles like a beacon in the dark. Available for $9 from TCC Online Store.

First Look: Patina Solids Deck

A new LotusinHand release is on the horizon! This drop introduces one of the most unusual and interactive card-back concepts ever attempted by the brand.

Each card is produced using a scratch-off printing process, in which a layer of metallic foil is stamped over the back design to hide a vibrant orange surface beneath. 

With every shuffle, cut, and flourish, the foil naturally begins to wear away, allowing you to leave a unique mark on every card through use. 

Whether intentionally scratched or gradually revealed through handling, each deck becomes a one-of-a-kind piece shaped by the way you play.

Collectors ordering 10 decks or more will receive a custom brick box, which doubles as a scratch-card surprise. Every brick includes a chance to win special prizes, including one of three Lotus #00 decks and the Patina Solid Uncut NFT.

As with past releases, NFT holders gain early access, opening 24 hours before the public sale (13th December 2025) on LotusinHand store.

ANYONE Unveils the Tally-Ho Anyone Playing Cards

Few playing card designs have shaped cardistry culture as profoundly as the Tally-Ho Circle Backs. Known for their elegance and handling, these decks... particularly the legendary blue seal editions from USPCC’s Ohio factory. They weren’t just cards; they were the beginning of an obsession.

That emotional history is what inspired Anyone to work with the USPCC to create the Tally-Ho · Anyone, a respectful yet refined evolution of a classic. Rather than altering the beloved design, Anyone enhances its performance through a custom black ink formula that produces a noticeably smoother surface and a tactile feel optimized for motion. 

The presentation captures the minimalist confidence that defines Anyone’s visual identity. The cards come housed in a double-back tuck, marked subtly with an A1 signature at the base. A blue USPCC seal closes the deck, a deliberate nod to the original Tally-Ho editions that sparked so much enthusiasm within the community.

The deck is printed on Thin Crushed stock, pressed for a slimmer profile and livelier snap perfect for flourishes, displays, and rapid handling.

This release arrives as part of a limited Black Friday window, paired with Anyone’s newly designed deck bag. The pricing will only be available for forty-eight hours starting at $9 per deck and $130 for the bag, this is the only chance to get these items at 50% off on Anyone store.

Virtuoso Moments - Rain Flower Stone NanJing Edition

Before the release of the Virts P1 SG deck, there was this exclusive release at Cardistry-Con in Nanjing, China few months ago. Drawing inspiration from the breathtaking Yuhua Stone, a natural agate unique to Nanjing, this special release captures the vibrant colors and fluid patterns of one of China’s most celebrated gemstones.

 

Known for its distinctive beauty, the Rain Flower Stone has long symbolized harmony and artistry — qualities now translated into cardistry through Virtuoso’s signature design style.

This limited deck embodies both local heritage and contemporary visual performance. Its design flows with the same organic rhythm found in the stone itself, creating mesmerizing displays in motion.

Produced in China and priced at $30 from resellers. Available only through offline sales, the Rain Flower Stone Nanjing Edition is an exceptionally rare release.

Take a Look at the Cardistry-Con 2025 Deck

Cardistry-Con returns to New York this weekend, and with it comes a deck as iconic as the gathering itself. Produced in collaboration with the United States Playing Card Company, this deck is a limited release designed to embody the energy and artistry of the cardistry community.

The bold deck features a predominantly black-and-white colorway, combining classic simplicity with striking visual impact. Standard courts are preserved for familiarity, while a custom Ace of Spades, Jokers, and card backs set the deck apart. 

The one-way, borderless back design is adorned with black dots, with the letters “CC” revealed cleverly through negative space styling. The cards are housed in a letterpressed matte custom tuck case, a minimalist yet refined design.

Limited to just 1,800 decks, every purchase of the CC25 edition supports the continuation of this unique global gathering, helping to ensure that future events can bring cardists together from around the world.

Printed on thin crushed stock with USPCC’s signature Air-Cushion finish, the deck offers smooth handling, crisp shuffles, and effortless flourishes. Available for $15 on the Cardistry-Con Website. 

The Virts Unveils Virtuoso P1 SG Deck

The Virts has announced the launch of the Virtuoso P1 SG, a special edition deck created to honor Singapore’s 60th anniversary. Co-founder Huron Low revealed the design to the brand’s launch list, highlighting both its symbolic meaning and unique cardistry features.

The back design of the deck draws inspiration from Singapore’s transformation from a small “Little Red Dot” into a city of skyscrapers. At its center sits a bold crimson circle, surrounded by a striking PRISM pattern. Unlike previous Virtuoso releases, the PRISM extends all the way to... and even beyond the edges of the card, symbolizing how the nation expanded beyond its limitations through unity and resilience.

The design flows seamlessly from back to face, forming tapered red bands that frame circular arrays. When the cards are spun, the lines animate like fan blades, while spreads reveal blooming patterns reminiscent of traditional Chinese fans. 

The most striking feature, however, comes when the deck is spread with its special portrait Flag Card: together, the cards transform into the Singapore flag. A step-by-step video tutorial has been produced so that even newcomers can easily achieve the effect.

Each deck comes with four Art Cards that deepen the storytelling experience. Inspired by classic digital watch displays, they form the number “SG60” to commemorate the nationwide celebration. On their reverse sides, collectors will find a Cover Card, a Story Card detailing the deck’s inspiration, a Flag Card for multiple flag transformations, and a Color-Block Card for simplified displays of the national symbol.

Because official permission to use the Singapore flag expires at the end of September 2025, the Virtuoso P1 SG will only be available during the anniversary celebrations. After a decade of waiting, the original SG50 version was cancelled in 2015 due to lack of approval, Virtuoso finally realized its long-held vision.

The deck will be available for $18 for a limited time on 25 September, 10am (EDT).
