Odyssey from Bicycle Playing Cards is a premium playing card deck meant to transport card collectors, card enthusiasts, and card players alike to a different time and land. The design for the deck began with the court faces, which were inspired by the Trophy Whist No. 39 deck, first printed by The United States Playing Card Company in 1895. The faces were re-colored in beautiful, monochromatic blue tones, while the suits still retain their traditional black and red colors. The blue tones of the court cards inspired the theme of the deck, which is taking card enthusiasts on an adventurous quest on the high-seas as well as on land. The tuck design continues the theme of monochromatic blues and features intricate wave-like elements as well as a central compass. The tuck case is printed on matte finish paper with gorgeous light blue metallic foil details for an ultra-premium look. All Bicycle playing cards are made in the USA with Bicycle’s classic Air Cushion finish. This gives the playing cards a linen-like feel and allows cards to glide smoothly off one another during shuffling, dealing, and flourishing. These Bicycle Playing Cards are not only a beautiful statement piece on your coffee table, but are also perfect for playing your favorite card games - from Rummy to Spoons, Spades to Euchre, Hearts to Blackjack, and hundreds of others.
