Although very big and heavy, not exactly sure where I am going to put it, I really like the 52plus 10year deck display. Now I just have to find the Alex Chen deck that seems to be missing from my consolidated box of 52plus joker decks. Week two of the deck hunt continues...

I was not able to squeeze the 2023 deck into its slot had to take the white sleave off, others indicated they were successful at wiggling it in. I may need to take it apart and file down the sides. For now it looks pretty good with the Black and Silver tuck.

Thanks to Slavich's collection sale/auctions I picked up this little gem. Paid a bit more than I would have liked, but it will have a nice home with the rest of my Stockholm Reserves and Production sample.

Finally bit the bullet and bought one of the white Cordel Cordaro decks to match the two red ones. Came with Post Card. Noticed he has produced a new Harmony deck, ordered two of those as well.

Dale Mathis Decks and Cards (@Kevork)
Mathis decks had standard courts and indices, with custom Ace of Spades, Jokers, Double Backer and Add Card.
They also came with one metal Ad card in the tuck, and one metal card with signature in the display case.
I have One Black & Gold deck and One Black Gold & Silver deck. I believe the display cases were an optional adder.

A couple new arrivals: Wyrmwood's Gatekeeper Set & Jackson's Virum Videre Set

Wyrmwood display case is really well finished, very smooth and feels like silk, window is really clear and inset into top of case. Pretty expensive but may need to go get a couple extra :mrgreen: I really have a soft spot for things that are made out of very well finished wood. This is right up there with some of things UUSI has produced.

Nice display case with carat style magnetic lid. Not as found of the coin holder piece sense it is frosted and hides the clarity of the decks.
Just fyi, the coin holder piece isn't frosted. It has a peel away plastic backing to protect it during shipping. Just peel it off.
