Hey gang,

Something worthy of your consideration...

BICYCLE U.S. PRESIDENTS PLAYING CARDS by Collectable Playing Cards



“America”, synonymous with “liberty” and young enough to fit all 44 of its leaders in one deck of playing cards. Printed by USPCC.

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

The US Presidents deck has been in production for many months. Each card has been hand drawn to feature the most intricate details. This deck features all 44 presidents and 4 popular first ladies as queens. Although we can debate which presidents should have been on the court cards, we have done much research before making our choices. We chose based on popularity and the president’s influence on our nation’s history. The remaining presidents are uniquely featured on the number cards.

The US Presidents Deck was not only designed to appeal to the card collector audience, but also as a fully playable deck of cards. It will be hard not to reflect on our great nation’s history and the accomplishments of our past leaders while playing with these cards.

We are launched this deck in February in honor of President’s Day (February 16th) here in the United States. Pick up a few packs to show your patriotism, and a few extra to play with and admire. Our goal is to have these in your hands by Independence Day

A FEW NUMBER CARDS...





Abraham Lincoln If there’s one president whose legacy needs little introduction, it’s Lincoln. Who else can boast that he freed the slaves and started the United States on the path toward becoming a truly free and equal country? He’s consistently at or near the top of lists of greatest presidents, and there’s no question as to the enduring power of his legacy.



John F. Kennedy JFK had an impressive string of firsts to his credit: the first president born in the 20th century, the first Catholic president, the first president to win a Pulitzer Prize. His term was a time of great change in the U.S. and around the world, with the Vietnam War, the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Civil Rights Movement – it’s hard to pick a single legacy he leaves. But we’ll settle on the fact that he truly brought the presidency into the modern age, rocketing to the office on the strength of the first televised presidential debate. His good looks and charisma played so well on TV that we couldn’t help but elect him.



THE JOKERS...

Uncle Sam (initials U.S.) is a common national personification of the American government that, according to legend, came into use during the War of 1812 and was supposedly named for Samuel Wilson.

One has a 6 of hearts reveal. Ties in perfect for this patriotic deck.



RISKS AND CHALLENGES...

The Bicycle US President Deck has already been approved by USPCC for printing. We expect to receive the decks by July 2015 and immediately begin shipping to all our backers. We do not anticipate any challenges with this project.

How do we print and ship out rewards so quickly? We have a close relationship with USPCC. They are able to print our designs quickly and we have a state art fulfillment center to quickly ship out our backer rewards. With out you, our backers, we could not make this happen. A BIG thank you to Kickstarter and most importantly all of you!
