Re: Cardshark and cards
I was asked earlier about me having vintage decks apposed to the modern day. I am going crazy looking for a deck that my girlfriend gave me. They were her mothers who lived in Germany. The cards came from the era of WWII however are not war related. They are old and beautiful and I have them in my room somewhere. There is a lot and at times hard to find certain decks. As for posting here, I have no method, just simply when the moment comes. Have all the series of run and purchased the red ones last Christmas from Collector's. He marked them down from 99.95 to 50.00. It was a good deal. The other two sets are lurking within the guts of the card room.

Re: Cardshark and cards
I posted this deck on the other page, but repost to put the three decks that were put out. The Confidence Deck. Shortly after these three decks came out Collin Stover closed shop. He was off to college.

Re: Cardshark and cards
This and the last three pix, I thought I had seen plenty of large collections, but you really do have a huge amount of decks, of all types and genres. Awesome!Cardshark wrote:And more.

Re: Cardshark and cards
Changes were coming down. Milt Larson owned thr Magic Castle logo. Anything that had The Magic Castle logo on it that brought in money Milt received a three percent kick back. A number of years ago the Castle grossed five million and Milt was looking for his three percent. The Castle told him no. FYI this last year they grossed 16 million. In short, Milt told the castle they could no longer use the name The Magic Castle. This is why it is now called The Academy of Magical Arts. There are a few things that still use the Castle logo, but very few. The decks you see have the new logo. All the gift shop items have the AMA logo.
