United Cardists Deck of the Year Awards -- Hall of Fame

Unread post by rousselle »

Hi, everybody.

The first UC Deck of the Year Awards were created to celebrate playing card achievements in 2012, and have been tabulated from the votes of UC members every year through 2019, and then opened up to voting by the larger playing card enthusiast community beginning in 2020 when Portfolio52 began curating the event and providing the voting platform.

Below is a list of playing card-related achievements that have been recognized by the members of United Cardists and Portfolio 52 throughout the years.
