Gentleman (Bicycle) Playing Cards - Anyone else love these?

Unread post by rgamble »

Hi all,

I purchased a few decks a few years ago when I got the first stirrings of interest in doing some magic. As is often the case, my interest waned fairly quickly only to return this year in a big way. I've learned quite a few magic tricks, even performed some for family and friends, but primarily have become a card collector. One of the first premium decks I ever purchased was the white Gentleman Bicycle deck produced by The Gambler's Warehouse. The tuck and backs remind me a lot of Theory 11 decks, but the faces of the cards, especially the courts, are what drew me to them. Very stylized and inspired by the 20's through 40's (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/30 ... escription).

I managed to score one of the black gilded editions recently, and am keeping an eye out for one of the white gilded - with red gilding.

Funny, I have a different Gentleman deck by Bocopo :?
So I thought I was going to comment on these, but I guess not. I kinda like the version I have, but yours are cool too :lol: :D

I'm presuming you mean the Black deck with Gold Gilding.

I have a set of the gilded decks available but only willing to sell as a pair i'm afraid due to matching numbers:

I'm aware of the Bocopo deck, which is why I made sure to include Bicycle in the title. :). I've always been surprised that the Bicycle Gentleman's haven't received more love.
