Gemaco Cards

A place where beginners can participate, ask questions, and post their views. However, beginners typically ask a lot of questions about sources, tricks, books, and so on. In fact, all magicians are interested (or should be) in the provenance of tricks, ideas, and related matters. This department will service these needs.

Gemaco Cards

Postby Tabman » January 26th, 2005, 6:26 pm

Recently I bought a case of Gemaco casino cards. These are from The Palace and have a green/blue pattern back reminiscent of Bee brand cards. I bought the cards to use with my Las Vegas Chip Assemblys that I sell but I decided to confiscate a couple of decks for myself to play with. It's hard to resist a new deck of cards as you well know. To my surprise (I am a long time Bike user) I really like these cards. They're sturdy, stay flat, interleave well, fan well, everything a deck of cards should be.

MY question: Does anybody know if they make a Gemaco deck with bordered backs???? I know I can probably spend a while online and find this out without bothering you guys but I'm hoping someone can quickly enlighten me.

Anyway, thanks much. Whosoever answers my question first, if at all, I'll mail you a deck of these to play with. Really nice cards but I'm hooked on tricks that benefit from bordered backs!!!

TIA,

Tabby,

From looking at the Gemaco website, it doesn't appear that they make a white-bordered casino back. However, they do make relatively inexpensive "custom" designs...
