The legendary band Grateful Dead has done a bunch of decks over the years, but this one from 1992 is the best one for sure.

There is a listing on ebay for a somewhat reasonable price (64,99 USD, bidding starts from 49,99 USD)

There is also an another listing that is more expensive, but still in within reason in Rubylane for 75 USD.

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a penguin. Have you ever met a sad person with a penguin?

I've owned these since about '95, before I considered myself a collector. Never cared for the backs, but the art on the faces are out of this world.

Was this deck by J&T? There is no box, only a bag.

Made of hemp, I assume. And it's versatile! If you lose the cards you can use it to hold your stash of... trail mix. Yes.

A LISTING FOR A MINT CONDITION SET starting bid at 89 USD, over 9 days to go in the auction.

There is also an another mint condition set on ebay as well for "only" 249 USD or make an offer.

If anyone wants this one, keep your eyes open for that upper listing.

Edit: Damnit, I just now realized that the listing on Rubylane at the opening post is for in fact for a sealed deck! That one has the best price, with 75 USD, ignore these two listings, well at least until the Rubyland listing is sold.
