They look nice. I'm getting a few decks for sure. Guess I may as well get some stingers too.

I think the "Stingers" are pretty cool! You get the advantage of the white border but they also seem to still have the optical advantage of borderless!

USPCC released a special set of the 125th edition- only sold on ebay. It was a wooden box, made from wood from the old factory.--"At this time, we are only selling these cards on Ebay. They are a special deck with each box like the one you see in the picture being handcrafted by a 30 year USPC veteran using the wood from the floors of the 19th century building we occupied until recently.
Thank you for your interest, Rachel Ricketts United States Playing Card Co. 300 Gap Way Erlanger, KY 41018 (859) 815-7300" (got that from another site) It was on ebay starting at 999.00. Its gone now

The border fades into the back design so from what I see (both from my perspective when dealing as well as on video )you get a bit more forgiveness (?) optically! OR, maybe my eye sight has gotten so bad it's all in my mind!
