Bicycle

The Ancient Machine deckis a unique

concept! One for the ages! has the makings of a futuristic, yet olden

day design. You will get lost in intricate lines and shapes in the court

cards along with the pips.Printed by the United States Playing Card

Company. A limited run of not more than 4000 decks. Each deck will be

numbered from 1 to 4000.The back card is a symbol of the deck. It's as

if it were a flag for the future of warfare. Again, very solid and

strong dark golds and silvers. Each court card comes uniquely designed

with robotic-like shapes. The gadgets and weapons are upgraded from the

original Bicycle style. The warriors seem a bit more prepared to stave

off any unwanted guest. Another cool feature are the pips that are

displayed directly in the center of the card. The pip outlines are

something that has never before been seen on a deck of cards. They have a

very rock ?solid 3D design that catches the eye rather quickly. And the

colors are very stoic and firm which plays well with the concept of the

deck.

Hypnotizing... The back card shows the dot and it's glare fading into a

circular funnel of darkness. Again, the detail and colors really make

the 'eye' of the card come to life.

The court cards blend nicely

together, but are still easy to read. Again, the Red Core will follow

you from card to card, so get used to it. Everything is very solid and

in your face down to the expressions and pips. The dark grey really

makes the core pop.

The pips come to life in the numbered cards

as most of the fade from the redness illuminates the entire pip. Very

easy to read with the contrast of color.

The joker zeros in on

you with a piercing stare. It almost feels as if the red core is

targeting the middle of your forehead. It is one of the most interesting

concepts and designs for a deck of cards. Printed by the United States

Playing Card Company. A limited run of not more than 4000 decks. Each

deck will be numbered from 1 to 4000.
