Imagine the possibilities of an innocently looking deck of playing cards that - on your command - can display any word, name or message! Alexander Kölle, creator of Science Friction, the most versatile roughing fluid, has done it again and comes up with a great utility deck that gives you endless possibilities.
Here are just some ideas: Secret Messages Spectator's Names Card Values Revelations Company or Product Names Cities or Locations even phone or other important numbers with the included "1" and "0" digits. To give you the maximum amount of possibilities for writing information, we removed the letters that are normally in every Poker Deck anyway. On these free spaces, we added the most commonly used letters. Here is an overview: All in all you get 72 cards with letters. This means we put together 56 custom printed cards with letters or numbers in one corner. The 16 additional cards with the letters "A", "J", "Q" and "K" are taken from the additional deck that comes with the Letter Deck. With this overview you can check if you are able to spell an important name or message so that you will not be disappointed when an important letter is missing to write a certain text. In worst case get a second deck! The Letter Deck itself is marked on its back. It will allow you to remove the necessary letters face down. The additional cards for the letters "A", "J", "Q" and "K" come from an UNMARKED regular Phoenix Deck in the Standard Edition or from a Marked Deck in the Deluxe Edition. That means: in the Standard Edition you will remove the necessary cards face up, in the Deluxe Edition you can remove the cards either way; face up or face down. The Standard Edition includes: The Letter Deck - marked on the backs A regular Phoenix Deck - to complete the Letter Deck with the letters "A", "J", "Q" and "K" Online Videos that will teach you the handling, including several routines The Deluxe Edition includes: The Letter Deck - marked on the backs The Phoenix Marked Deck - to complete the Letter Deck with the letters "A", "J", "Q" and "K" The NewDist Deck that allows to either show a random deck or to completely turn it blank letting the message stand out even more A regular Phoenix Deck Online Videos that will teach you the handling, including several routines http://www.card-shark.de/iphone/showitem......rtID=324 |

I have the Deluxe Edition and already used it with great success. Personally, I think the deck is a great tool for creative minds, providing lots of possibilities. Many thanks for releasing this.

I'll need to start using a Pheonix deck which I don't personally have a problem with, however, I'm currently making a transition to Tally Ho's from Bikes :p

I saw a performance at te Zauberbörse in Stuttgart some weeks ago and it really looks fantastic. Great for introducing Brandnames and such...
I'd rather be read than (w)ri(gh)t(e)

So happy with this purchase. The quality of cards are perfect and as with most things from Card Shark everything
has been thought through. The letter markings on both the front and the hidden ones on the back are clearly legible. I would recommend the Deluxe package with the NewDist deck. This is so commercial and powerful. Today at a Chinese New Years celebration I was able to ribbon spread and display both sides of the cards. Have the crowd shout out "Happy New Year!" in Mandarin "XinNian Kuai le" and when the deck was spread again it was all blank except for the XinNian Kuai Le spelled out. This is perfect for ANY celebration and incredibly versatile. The effect where you cause a packet of cards to spell out a persons name can leave people shaking. It's a very bizarre moment for them. I just got this and I'm ready to go ahead and get a few more backup decks. I can use this for the rest of my life. Alexander, Thanks for making this available to the rest of us and our audiences!

Hello Guys,
thanks for your kind words and I am really glad that you like the new LETTER DECK. I can also only tell you that this "effect" is completely mind blowing to the people when they see their name written with cards, or to see their companies names revealed on an exhibition...I knew it will be good but I didn't expect that it is that good and personal. For important clients I prepare their companies name or their slogan and frame it in a nice picture frame and they can keep it as a souvenir after my show. You can bet that no one else in the world made such a personal and unique gift which they will hang in their office. The use of the LETTER DECK is almost limitless and there is such a hidden potential in an ordinary looking deck of cards. You cannot only reveal whatever you want but you can also use it for dual reality or for instant stooging and forcing. This deck is not a trick but it is more like a tool for creativity. I am really looking forward to see what you will come up with the deck as I am pretty sure that I haven't think of everything yet. You can also join to our LETTER DECK Facebook group to share your ideas with other users. https://www.facebook.com/groups/404388796570960/?fref=ts I wish you all the best and a lot of fun with this brand new principle! Alex
