Nicely done, thanks!

I have the deck, but have no decent camera, just a scanner.

Some day! (sigh)...

thanks

Camera is really much more expensive than decks. lol
Hope you can get it.

Just recently got these in the mail, all sealed and in excellent condition...

USPCC Commemorative 2 deck set.



Vintage Bicycle Racer Back.





And last, this Bicycle advertisement deck. In the second picture in the upper left hand corner of the side of the deck, you can see that the offer expires 12/31/82, just to give you an idea as to how old it is.





I also have a vintage Bicycle red Playboy deck coming in the mail. I plan to pick up a 1982 Bicycle Olympic set as well.

Pictures of those to follow

I picked up a set of the 1982 Bicycle Olympics set...

at the 1982 Olympics!

They were held in Los Angeles, not far from where I lived at the time.

I also have a copy of the 1932 Olympic deck.

It isn't a Bicycle deck, but I bought it because its courts are photographs of film stars of the day.

It came in a cool slipcase box.

I want to get a copy of the 1996 Olympic deck as well. I have a family member who participated in the Olympics that year (she was a member of the US Beach Volleyball team).

Bmpokerworld sells the deck, but it's a bit rich for my blood at present.

i just get these

Mmm, Purple!



It's my favorite color.

Here is what i´ve got in yesterday and today and sooo much more in the mail

Hey guys,

Here are some decks I've added to the collection over the last few weeks...

Well, there's 107 other ones that go with it.

More details to follow soon.

Here are my Oct/Nov additions to the collection.

The courts on the Silver&White look VERY cool.

The same courts (in different colors) have been used in several other Bike decks, including the Bungalow/Flirtatious/Rejuvenate/Twilight decks, the Pink & Lavender deck, and a few others.

But yes, the Silver & White's courts' coloring is the most appealing I've seen with that court design.

ETA:

Here are the Bikes I know of offhand which use that same court design:

Yes, I definitely think the Silver & White one is the best.

I got my Snow Owl Altruism decks today and a Green Crown deck was in the package too!

Received yesterday.

You purchased 2 sets of the Santa Backs from Merz??? at $50 per set..

CBJ wrote:You purchased 2 sets of the Santa Backs from Merz??? at $50 per set..

No, I got them for half that (which is still ridiculous) and didn't really realize they were Merz for some reason. Get that plus the Altruism decks was one of the most "meh" receiving days of decks I've ever had.

where did you get them for half of that?

CBJ wrote:where did you get them for half of that?

Well it was technically half that. I was given a US Amazon GC which I really didn't have much use for (so I considered it free money) so I only had to add $50 of my own. But yeah, even at that price, meh.

Received some older decks today

These decks came in today!





I was kind of hoping that the box would have been in better shape so I could use it... but I guess it wasn't meant to be







But ... one of my Coterie decks does have a GOLD seal on it!!! I guess that makes up for it





***Thanks to DelMagic for helping me get the Rugby decks!

CBJ

Very nice additions. I'm waiting on my Coterie's to arrive pretty soon as well. Is the gold seal one a special deck or something?

(props to DelMagic as the guy is awesome to deal with)

Ayo. Just got these in today...

Got them today!

Nice! Jay , is the deck with the gold seal a special edition or something?

All of the Coterie decks were supposed to have a Gold Seal, but when it went to print, USPC only had a small amount of Gold Seals in stock.
They made contact with Zenneth and told him that they could either wait for more gold seals to arrive, or he could pick another one.

They compromised, USPC would use up the rest of the Gold Seals they had... then the rest wouldn't get any seals.
So, around 900 Coterie decks have a gold seal, and the other 4100 do not.
