There are 17,678 unique decks listed in Portfolio52 database. That is not counting a ton of historical decks that are not listed there. Anyone even coming close to having all of the listed decks in P52 has a serious problem...hsbc has a fantastic "curated" collection.

Ian Cumpstey's decks. The farthest left should be his Inglewood Hunting deck.

brownsl got it, that is indeed the Inglewood Hunting deck and unfortunately it's pretty hard to find

Yes, that is the fabled and legendary member of the unicorn tribe, Inglewood Hunting Deck. I don't have it.

Jocu is working on some sort of display case for these, I need it very much
Re: [hsbc] Cards, etc.

You’re not kidding about a display for those - the extra large box and wax seal have vexed my storage options
Re: [hsbc] Cards, etc.

it is my understanding as well that Jocu is working with CCC to create a display case for these four decks.

Hi, its a great collection. We are still looking for the last Joker card - an artist, model or a playing card collector who can have the Joker tattooed and thus become part of the Real Inked Cards. Are you interested ? we would be really happy. #realinkedproject

Those Hong Kong-manufactured souvenir decks from various points of interest in the US and abroad were the beginning of my playing card collection. It all started when I was a kid, and relatives would bring souvenirs back from their travels for us kids....
