All playing cards are not created equal. There are plenty of Ferrari and Maserati class options on the market, but we frequently find ourselves coming back to our tried and true Bicycle decks. We’re used to the feel, the finish and the presence of the suicide king, one-eyed jacks and the black lady. Honestly though, the back of the cards could stand to be a little cooler… and the Conjuring Arts Research Center hooked up with the US Playing Card Company to do just that. These Bicycle Skull and Bones Cards are the same cards you learned to play rummy, hold ’em and circle of death with, but they’re decked out (had to.) with a skull and crossbones back available in two colors (red and black) and two finishes (Ivory or Cambric).
