Deck Review - 20’s Luxury Playing Cards

David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of the '20's Luxury Playing Cards,' a new deck currently funding on Kickstarter by Magic Tricks 101. The deck's design is heavily inspired by the Art Deco era and the Golden Age of magic, paying homage to legends like Houdini. David highlights the deck's impressive features, including a matte black tuck case with gold foil lettering, a distinctive back design with a black grid and white poker border, and a unique card reveal on the eight of diamonds. Printed by Hansen China on vintage paper stock with a legendary 'air cushion finish,' the cards offer a snappy feel and are perfect for techniques like the Pharaoh shuffle. Magicians will appreciate the one-way back design, opening up possibilities for specialized tricks. The deck is brimming with custom artwork, including jokers depicting a magician, a branded Ace of Spades, and Kings representing Vernon, Cardini, and Houdini. David strongly encourages viewers to back the Kickstarter campaign, emphasizing that it's an investment in the project's success. He also promotes his second channel, Magic Channel Card Tricks, which offers free magic tutorials for beginners.
