The Story
Published in 1902, The Expert at the Card Table has provided the most influential information about use of sleight-of-hand with cards. Yet, as influential as the book, itself, has been to the practice of magic, the author’s real name and background are a complete mystery.

Here Are some details of the deck.

Possible to pledge for just the white deck?

Metallic inks?

I also like the white deck more. I think I'd like the green one better if the backs had more green, it's a bit heavy on the gold.

The boxes look really good. The court are also good, but would be better with at least some color.

Unfortunately, it isn’t. We printed the Maverick Edition (white deck) for a birthday party and there isn’t enough left over to do a full offering so we are going to give them away during the campaign.

Thank you! I will keep the color recommendations in mind for the next round. Originally these were green without any gold.

Metallic inks?

There's another deck, I forget by who, that comes in the outer shell of a copy of The Expert at the Card Table. The backs and faces are covered with real images and passages from the book. The art here is much better, but the other one is dripping in content from the book. Do you choose artistry, or authenticity?

Well, this one is also nice, yet it’s not user friendly as in used for magic and such - just pure novelty of the legendary book
