DeviantART: Haunted Casino Playing Cards by Dick Starr

GhostCardSellTop

This is a royal flush spread from the brand new Haunted Casino Playing Cards that I just completed for Charles Band (Puppetmaster, Gingerdead Man) and Full Moon Features. These decks will be sold around the world in casino gift shops (some are actually haunted). I did all of the artwork, card design, and layout for each of the 52 cards. This project took over a month to complete but I think it came out looking really cool.” ~ Dick Starr

This Lucky Deck is a custom deck of playing cards. It came together in a desire to utilize the card design process that gave birth to our current decks of playing and Tarot cards, and apply it to the creation of an original, progressive deck. The result is a unique pack that is appealing to playing cards collectors, as well as intriguing and entertaining to play with for everyone who loves beautiful playing cards. 

The deck keeps the structure of the regular pack of 54 cards with 4 custom suits (Fleurs-de-lis, Stars, Shells and Spirals) and two jokers. The face of each card is illustrated with archetypal images made with Victorian engravings that will reverberate as meaningful for the 21st card aficionados. The deck can be used to play common card games as well as other past-time such as magic tricks and possibly fortune-telling.

They’re professionally printed on 320 gsm Casino quality smooth finish paper with patented UV textured coating, perfect to shuffle and deal. It come neatly packaged with a little white book outlining a brief history of card design as well as insights about the inspiration behind this true novelty deck.
