In Italy there's a very long tradition of regional playing cards."Napoletane" cards are classic, a 40 cards deck used for "scopa", "briscola", "tressette" and many other games very popular there.This deck is not plastic coated, but plastic made, very unusual for regional decks... and you can't find it anywhere!

Another great passion of mine are warplanes of WWII.Coming from the same serie of the "Ocean Liners" deck, I found this one and I asked my wife to show me every picture, so I could tell her which plane was, without reading :-) 75% right answers!Which plane of these is my favourite?..... unusual picture, unusual joker!

Nice feeling of "Belle Epoque" in this deck, every card has different reproduction of poster and pics of the great liners - Titanic too... and an incredible joker - read the description!

And what do you think about these?Trasparent but usable (white ink masks symbols), plastic made (washable) and so smooth colors...I like them so much

These are a few pieces of real art, I think this deck comes from US Army during the WWII.Fighting apart, in those years sensuality was only what it has to be, considering women much more than a "desire object", and giving much place to dream and fantasy.What about today, sad days in which the same women accept to be only "object"?End of street-philosophy.

And this is the same image which dominates my blog's homeOne of my favourite film is "Ocean's Eleven", with the smell of playing cards everywhere... so, directly from Las Vegas, a used deck coming from Bellagio Casino, one of the 3 Benedict's House.in the picture, not the entire deck, only a little smell...

What to say, not the same fellings as usual playing cards, but it was also my first casino deck - unforgetable!And unfindable (is it right), another dead company...Another joker, I think one of the best in my collection

Well, it's true, "sexy" is too much, but "sensual" is not enough...First time I took'em in my hands, I had the illusion of feeling a smell of night coming up along the armsno more wordsHey! don't think I'm doing ADV, soon I'l take some bad pict (as the others you've seen) of other decks, of other companies, from other nations. I'm not a company lover, I'm a PLAYING CARD LOVER!

Here it is, Bicycle Rider Back, Classic...First we met son many years ago, when I saw "The Sting" ad Paul Newman playing with'em on the train...Almost forgiven, I saw them in the hands of a magician, the one who introduced me in the card tricks world.Since then, I never let'em home, always with me in jobplace, on holidays...what a feeling the first time I took in my hand a Bicycle deck!And tell
