I love the jacks and the overall style. No images yet on what the back or tucks will look like.

I backed these. I think they look pretty good. Not sure why but reminds me of Ian Cumpstey.

I love these- what fantastic art! But where is the tuck?? More importantly, almost $20 per deck shipped? Unless the tuck is made of iridescent pearl, no thank you.

Very nice find traaaf, thank you for sharing. Campaign is indeed lacking of details though. Would be nice to see more before putting money on the table.

Fun, quirky design. From the comment details, it would seem the card backs and tuck box are forthcoming. The backs will feature a blueberry patch of some sort. I put in a reminder and I will jump right in if the tuck and backs fit well with the theme.
Also, 60 days is a looooooong time for a campaign. Holy moly.

Backs and first joker revealed as well.
From the kickstarter update
The back design is based on vintage decks that have a borderless image, meaning it goes right to the edges of the card. This is an all-original blueberry-patch design which I wanted to do because picking wild blueberries in the late summer is something that Newfoundlanders still cherish today.
The Joker design is based on the practice of mummering in Newfoundland, and was the best choice for these cards.

That as well, haha. I originally was refering to the back design. That berries and leaves pattern really rounds up this very nice deck. Plus borderless awesomeness.
That joker indeed is great fun though, no doubt.

YES! I hope these get funded as the first deck was awesome! I'm in for a few.

Great deck. I do prefer the OG one though. This will therefore be a pass but I hope it funds.

In the hopes that he will keep making decks Iām in for 4 and grabbed another 2 of the OGs - always regretted only getting 2 of the OG in any case

If anyone's not aware, he's created a new addon for the original deck.
