Automatic Marked Deck Become a Master Magician Instantly

Best marked/tapered deck I've seen in awhile. I will be buying this again.

I've been confusing friends and family with basic card tricks using the DeLands deck. Nobody has figured it's secrets out yet. It's loads of fun. Just be careful when you shuffle them so you don't have to spend a bunch of time re-orienting them. The stripping is subtle and very hard to see. Once you have a bunch of them backwards, it can take a while to flip them all back around correctly.

Very old mystery, great piece of magic history. Thank you.

I had one of these when I was younger and I was SO EXCITED to find this here!This is a subtly marked deck that allows you to know any card without seeing its face - and when the deck is in the proper order, you know the location of every card in the deck at a glance, without ever having to so much as touch it!Additionally, the finer details of this stripped deck makes it easy to locate and retrieve a card lost in the deck without ever having to look - you can do this entirely by touch, and it is invisible to your audience.This deck came with a few bonus cards that allow you to perform a trick/effect called "Chase the Ace", and there are instructions online teaching you how to work the magic.This is an absolute delight of a deck for all manner of manipulations, predictions, and sleight-of-hand. There are some things that the stripped edges make difficult, and the finish and stiffness of the cards is somewhat middle-of-the-road as compared to, say, your classic Bicycle deck (which I feel is the top benchmark for non-plastic cards) - but this isn't meant to be a casino poker deck, this is meant to be a special deck that you can use to do magic! (Or play cards, and do surprisingly well... your choice!)

This deck is fun for anyone who wants to play some tricks. Easy to learn and fallow. The paper won't last as long but for the price it's perfect for a first deck or to have for nostalgic purposes.

If you want to have some fun with some nifty-little card tricks, this is the deck to get. There are a number of concepts included with the product and if you check on google, you'll find several more neat ideas. The cards handle well, though the edging is rough and the lamination a bit too thin rendering the cards feeling on the flimsier-side. The markings are well-thought out and placed, but be warned, you need to have some really exceptional vision to see them at a distance. You won't want to use these cards for other routines due to it being a stripper deck (which will impede double-lifts and controlled cuts, et.al.) Fun deck though!

The markings on this deck are really easy to use. You can see by flipping through the deck quickly that it is a marked deck if you know what to look for, and the markings are possible to just glance at and use, without being really obvious to the observer. Some decks the markings are so complicated and hard to see from just a portion of the card. Not here. Nice deck.

In the pictures the cards were colored blue but came in red instead. The cards were not very durable and on his paper thin. It also said that The cards have a stripper edge meaning one end of the card is wider than the other. I did not find this to be true.Other than that they’re OK.
