Hi everyone!
Our deck VIEWS playing cards are now available at gotmagic.com
Please see some images below.
Here is the description from our site as well:
VIEWS Playing Cards are a luxury, illusion-themed deck of cards created for cardists and magicians alike.
Manufactured by The United States Playing Card Company. Traditionally-cut and printed on crushed Bee® stock, a dream feel for any card handler.
No expense was spared to create this unique deck of cards. The box is crafted out of a synthetic soft-touch paper for a unique luxury feel. It is surrounded by the mind-bending illusion hot-stamped in white and mint foil. “VIEWS PLAYING CARDS” is embossed and hot-stamped with gold and white foil.
The cards are designed from scratch and 100% custom. The back design features the motion-like bending VIEWS dots with a mint undertone to create the illusion. The face cards have custom pips, and the courts have Pantone metallic inks.
Designed by Yves Krähenbühl
This deck is a limited edition of 10,000 decks printed. After they sell out, they will never be printed again.

Re: VIEWS Playing Cards
I kinda enjoy the back design, the courts are ok, but nothing too breath taking!
But asking $15 for a 10,000 deck print run is way to overpriced. Most creators here ask about the same price for a 2500 deck print run with all the whistles and bells... I would like to get one or two decks just because of that back design, but at that price point - NO THANKS. Good luck on getting those out of the door!!

Views Playing Cards
Views playing cards feature an optical-illusion back design conceptualized by Swiss graphic designer, Yves Krähenbühl.
The fully custom deck sports traditional-looking court cards updated with a modern look that compliments the unique back design extremely well. Additional design features include a custom ace of spades and two jokers.
Housed inside a chic tuck box foil stamped and embossed on smooth synthetic soft-touch card stuck.
Printed by The United States Playing Card Co.
That's the only picture they post though they claim the deck is "fully custom." Available here for $15 + shipping: https://www.artofplay.com/collections/p ... ucts/views" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: Views Playing Cards
I have seen these somewhere before, and they're still just as ugly as the first time.
The "optical illusion" doesn't fool me.
