Madison x Schneider Remedies are Back in Blue!

The Madison x Schneider Remedies are back in royal blue... a perfect companion to the first scarlet red Remedies. Like the first deck, the deck hosts an intricately beautiful symbology of creative, romantic, and poetic freedom - a tribute and collection of everything that Madison and Schneider love about playing cards. 

 
Remedies Playing Cards is a reminiscence to the beginning of custom playing card designs with a modern twist that is already visible when you take a look at the first card, the Remedies Ace of Spades. The deck comes with custom pips and indices, refined courts packed with hidden secrets for you to discover. 

 
Also, the deck is packed with hidden secrets and built-in magic tricks (including an ANGLE ZERO Gaff and a series of brand new revelations - all taught on Madison's YouTube channel). The deck is printed on a premium crushed paper stock and traditionally cut. 

Available NOW for $16 on madison.cards.

Broken Crowns Playing Cards by Mark & Jenny Fallis

Broken Crowns Playing Cards are designed by Mark (@markfallis) & Jenny Fallis (@thejennylaynebakery) currently funding on Kickstarter. The deck is inspired by family heirloom tapestries and various design elements found throughout Mark and Jenny's home.

This fully custom deck features hand-rendered line-work and illustrations. Months of research went into this deck with many historical references to playing card design are found throughout.

Inspired by designs from the 1700s and 1800s, the initial card illustrated was the King of Hearts. This card set the stage for the entire deck’s aesthetic. Adjectives used to describe this deck has been whimsical, idiosyncratic, and weird. 

The ace of spades provides a nod to its back-story with the phrase “DO NOT Sell or Buy for use in Another Deck”. It originally was issued by the government as a way of ensuring taxes were paid by playing card manufacturers. 

Each individual pip and indices was hand-rendered from scratch. The Joker pays tribute to its design evolution through history. Examples of this are seen in the name "Jolly Joker" as well as the similar typographical layout of the original Bower Card.

The color palette of the cards carries over to the tuck, however using a different approach. The background is a one-color version of the back design, while the red is only represented on the seal.

Printed by United States Playing Card Company on Classic Bicycle Grade. Pledge starts at $11 on Kickstarter.

Game Over Playing Cards

Gemini Decks have released Game Over Playing Cards as part of their Black Friday offering. The deck sports a striking yellow colorway tuck box that looks like the popular handheld console from the 90s. The 8-bit graphical style has quite a bit of charm. 

Inside the deck is fully custom with pixel pips and faces designed. This is a nice touch and fits the theme really well. 

The court cards are standard but recolored to match the color palette of the deck. Also, the royals are now seen with console controllers, VR goggles, joysticks, and more. 

The mirrored back holds everything together with a colorful retro-style 'Game Over' wording. The multi-colored inner borders make for an interesting fan and spread. Definitely suitable for cadtistry and magic.

The decks are printed by the USPCC and available now on geminidecks for $9.95
