Yeah, like Magik says... I'm a hopeless Bikeoholic hahah

I do buy non-Bicycle-branded decks on occasion. Just yesterday I picked up a white Artisan, and the pink and orange Tally-Hos.
But, in general... I buy "Bicycle"

What about you? Are you a collector??

I'm a big time collector. Love collecting, but I don't have a specific brand. I started with Bicycle and grew into everything else. I'll see if I can get some pictures uploaded.

Awesome collection!!! It would be great if you could get some close-up pictures so we can see what decks they are.

Very nice! I gotta say I'm a little jealous! My biggest struggle is wanting to open them. But my little starter collection (compared) to yours will have to do. :). Thanks for sharing!

Hey don't worry about that. no need to compare. you are starting out and these things take time. I have only been collecting for a. few years and in that time I have managed to obtain almost all the rare decks I have been seeking. Just last week I made a deal for my most desired deck. that is a big part of the fun of this. Take your time and build up a nice collection.

Lovely collection! If you don't mind I have a few inquiries:

Which decks are these?

What deck of sailor jerry's is that? That only one I'm able to find is this one (is it the same one just turned to the non explicit side?):

Thanks!

There are 4 Sailor Jerry decks.

The first 2 bicycle decks you posted are the 125th Anniversary test decks. Very hard to find.

the other 2 decks are readily available

How did you get those test decks? Deep connections within Bicycle or black market trades? :)

I does help to know a lot of other card collectors... and I've made a few amazing contacts over the years.


The berry deck I picked up on Ebay a couple of years ago, the pic with the 4 decks I picked up off of Ace-King earlier this year. And the pic with the 12-13 decks.. I'm in the middle of a trade for them

Most of these decks are insanely hard to find.

Very happy for your collection!

I've fallen for the Sailor Jerry's. I'm bidding on a few on eBay right now. :)
If you know of anyone who has extras of those decks and wishes to sell to a fellow collector, please send them my way. :D
