While the "dirt" is much more pronounced than the "1900" deck, it doesn't cross into "too much dirt"
territory.
The back design is wonderful, I really like it.
The deck itself feels
great.
Highly recommended if you like what you see in the pics.

Fabulous cards! These cards are everything you have learned to expect and want from the Bicycle
crowd ♣️♥️♠️♦️: great looks (LOVE the aged look), wonderful handling (faros, fanning, false dealing
and much more) and durability. You can’t go wrong with these!

I love vintage looking cards. These have the look I wanted. If this is the look you are looking
for, you will love these cards.

The vintage look of these playing cards is very nice. If the card effect you are performing has a
story line and the story line is set in an ancient time or in the 1800's to the early 1900's, this
deck can embellish the routine by its vintage appearance. Artwork is nicely done. Recommend.

Ditto to all that both other reviewers had to say as they are extremely nice looking cards. And
they are great for fanning and Second Dealing.
But what impressed me the most is how
easily they faro right out of the box. I do several routines requiring perfect faro shuffles,
including three which start with a sealed deck, so there is no opportunity to break them in for
faros. With these, it doesn't matter. Right out of the box - they work like a charm.
Also, if you are learning the perfect faro now, or tried previously and got frustrated and gave
up, you might try these. Almost like a bicycle (pun intended) with training wheels. I sure wish I
had had this deck 37 years ago when I learned the perfect shuffle.
Try'em - you'll like'em.
I'm ordering 4 dozen more tonight.

Out of the many card decks that Bicycle continues to produce- for that matter, that other companies
are producing, THIS deck was an instant MUST HAVE. Absolutely HAD to have this deck. The
look-design, colors, vintage pips, and distressed finish, rang every bell in my mental magic castle!
More, I was thrilled at the price, here on Penguin. Bear in mind, that I'm a career illustrator and
fine artist, so I get excited by things visual that others may not make a peep about. As someone who
is designing a deck, I'm nearly 'jealous' that I did'nt come up with this deck! Just rich, regal,
and magical looking. Oh-and it comes with a double backer and some sweet antique style jokers. 5
STARS-get this (and just send them all to me!!!)

I own one deck and love them, they're gorgeous. I really hope Penguin restock them soon so I can
grab 2-3 more decks.
I like the look of the fan with the "vintage". the flow of the graphics is really smooth for
cardistry. a little slippery. maybe a touch more than id normally care for but still a fantastic
deck of cards!
