Dead Man's deck questions

Unread post by macstrat »

So I was looking at the Dead Mans Deck and had a question: Is JR the designer for this deck? The pips and index font look like his signatures, as does the art, but I cannot find any information to verify this on the tuck or any of the retail sites.

No. The Dead Man's Deck was not made by Jackson Robinson. It was produced by Vanishing, Inc. and EPCC was the printer. I am not sure who was the actual artist, but it wasn't Jackson Robinson. It is one of my favorite decks and was very well done.

I really like the deck. It just had a lot of similarities so I thought I'd ask

It might be worth asking the folks at Vanishing who they got to design this deck.

It *is* a pretty cool design.

Hopefully I'm not stating the obvious about the artwork here, but from the picture posted above, at least the KoH is a modification of the standard Paris pattern KoH:
