Just noticed this under their prizes.

Pressers Uncut Sheet
A rare uncut sheet of our latest retro Playing Cards

Sounds like the deck is coming soon, anyone know when exactly? Would hate to place an order and then have them release this right away.

Daniel, please check the "Black Friday - possible Black JAQK" thread for updates. I found out today that it's not likely a new JAQK deck (although it's possible). Let's put it this way, if it is, JAQK Cellars doesn't know anything about it, and they told me that they did NOT sell the copyright to Theory11.

No no. I meant whatever deck that is, it will look good next to my red and blue JAQK Cellars decks, because of the liquor theme.

I tend to organize my decks by theme when possible.

And on top of that, this seems to be Ellusionist, not Theory11. ;)

Speaking of new colors, somebody commented on E's Facebook that a Gold Artifice would be nice and their response was "ooh you just wait"

I don't know if that was a serious response or if it means anything but I don't think we need any more Artifice colors! Unless that is going to be for new BC members this year?

I'm not sure how much Jaqk Cellars knows about the theory11 decks. I had contacted them in the past to purchase the red and blue decks from them and mention theory11 and they didn't even know who they were.

You probably spoke with customer service. They very rarely know about dealings from their higher ups.

from the E Facebook Page :
Ripped from the 60's, this MAD MEN inspired deck of cards is the talk of the agency - Wrapped in a beautiful vintage design, printed on soft luxe paper with a raised emboss, these decks are customized from the inside out. Pressers, from E.P.C.CO, Madison Ave, NY,NY.

They look good - fully custom and something different then their normal type of decks.
I like what i see so far!

E.P.C.Co? Ellusionist Playing Card Company? I hope that's not gonna be a "thing", D$D already did this and it doesn't really work. Unless you actually print the cards, don't call yourself a PCCo. But I realize it's probably just a schtick for this deck. Hopefully.

And only one color. We all know what's coming :roll:

That said, it looks pretty damn good. Best E deck since Artifice IMO.

"Expert Playing Card Co.", same people (in Taiwan, actually) that did the Legends, Global Titans and Exquisite Red & Blue decks among others & Legends v2 Black Metallic that just sold last week on CARC. Funny thing about those Exquisite decks from CARC: you would expect the backs to be metallic like the awesome looking tucks, right? We're having a little discussion offline about getting a refund - they are not metallic on the card backs.

Interesting. I stand corrected! I noticed the address and thought myself, they were at 110 xx Ave before - same address as CARC. hmmm...

I'm glad they are being printed by the uspcc. This looks like it's going to be a really nice deck.

I believe they confirmed on their Facebook that these will indeed be USPC decks and unlimited! They already call themselves the Ellusionist Playing Card Company on the bottom of their tucks and on their ad cards so that is what it stands for.

It only means that the black club members get a 24 hour advance showing and ability to purchase the deck before it is available to the public.

aviators sounds like a real word, but those are standard courts so i dislike them for that not the name. things likes pressers, peelers, juicers, snackers, squeezers, shuckers, roasters, rounders etc just pressers on a nerve that irritates me lol. as i said, i know i am a bit odd.
