Bicycle Capitol

Yet another new Bicycle deck I saw this morning on Murphys, looks pretty nice, just in time for Veterans Day I suppose. Embossing and foil on the tuck, looks really nice. Reprint of an old Russell & Morgan deck from 1886 that has been out of print since 1928. This is the original of 6 different card backs they apparently used during it's run. Nice vintage style courts.

Wow... is Bicycle getting a face lift? These recent ones are just spectacularly classy
Also, is that metallic ink on the faces? Or just plain mustard yellow?

This looks quite nice - is there an ETA on this being available through the retailers?

Thanks for the heads up, Victor. Just placed an order with Vanishing Inc. for this and the other decks you mentioned. Free shipping over $45 wasn't hard to accomplish.

Again - not bad.

The limited color palette isn't great, though.

It’s a reproduction of a vintage deck, I think it’s fine
