LEGACY deck
🕑 Added 2024-03-03 20:47:50 +0000 UTCQuick update about my Legacy deck.
I'm going to print 500 decks. 1 deck will cost 25€ but you'll basically get it for free in the 'First Come First Serve Bundle' of the Innocence Gold Foil Kickstarter campaign. Mark your calendars for May 3! 🌝
I couldn't find the files of the 'Forest Playing Cards' and the 'Orbit V3 deck' anymore so I contacted USPCC. They basically said that the Orbit V3 deck is too old - they only have the box file. I opened the file and... it was empty :D I scrolled back through Chris' and my facebook chat until 2017 and was able to find the back design at least. Had to recreate the Ace with the files that I have on my computer and an Orbit V3 deck on my desk as a reference. Nearly the same problem with the Forest deck. At least I got the backs from USPCC but I had to recreate the Ace of Spades from an unfinished file that I found on my hard disk and a photo of the Ace that I found online. That and the arrangement of the aces was basically my occupation for the day today.
I also had to google 3-4 times whether the ace was really the right one. Some of the designs were created by me so many years ago that I don't even really remember them anymore. I'm getting old :D For example, the 2nd to last ace in the 3rd row with the 2 roses. That is the Polyantha Ace that I originally designed in 2015. It was the 2nd deck I've ever designed. That's why the Ace of Spades has 2 roses. Of course, I couldn't keep the idea the same, otherwise the 20th deck would be all roses everywhere. I'm sure I wanted to keep it for the 2019 USPCC release out of nostalgia. But seeing the ace confused me a little. I would probably have found a different solution today. But that's also one of the great things about the designs, that they show a never-ending learning process.
Thanks for reading!
Much love
Daniel

How good would an uncut sheet of the Legacy be !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ps I am still wondering whether the KS campaign needs to make it clear that the legacy is not a playing deck so that nobody is confused as to what they are getting. Cheers

I won't then. I just don't think people realize how good it is :)

Since it's a public post you don't need to ask, I just don't see any benefit in doing it.

Daniel, is it OK if I post that Aces pic on United Cardists forum?

A new patreon here. I have already backed yesterday's Gold Foil Innocence KS but I had no idea the Legacy fronts were all the Aces (I must go back and read the KS) Now I know - I am going back for more!

Mission accepted! 🤣

Yup. Nobody got those. These are the Farid Playing Cards. We printed 1000 decks with HC in 2017. Farid is a German magician. He sold the decks on tour.

Wait what is that carbon fiber looking ace of spades and the purple ribbon ace of spades? I don’t have those.
