    Card expert/historians... tell me more about these cards!

    Haha thats alright, I know all about that. I've been on magic forums, including being a moderator, for 9+ years and it's always been an issue. I didn't put down too much initial information so I can see that it would be easy to assume. It's okay. :)

    Card expert/historians... tell me more about these cards!

    Yes I have been on that website and a few others because obviously (haha) I googled them myself, but of course its just really broad information that doesn't pertain to this deck in particular. I do appreciate you looking into it for me though. Thanks! :)

    Card expert/historians... tell me more about these cards!

    I picked these up from an estate sale for a few dollars today. There are 29 cards, no box. Dirty, but no tears or creases. Court cards and number cards have no numbers. Photos below... So, are they worth anything? Do they have any historical significance in the world of playing cards...

    Saturday Night Contest - Black and White

    I went to the Waldorf Astoria but couldn't photograph what I wanted. Had to settle for some early American wrought iron art at the Met Museum (hard enough to sneak around the guards, I shouldn't have been touching this stuff!) I picked the Hustlers Ace because I felt the design complimented the...

    But then the spectator would feel the pull of the a coin in their hand as well.

    Metal Detecting Gear

    For one of my jobs I have to walk through a metal detector every time I go to work. It's set VERY high, very sensitive. I have an Apple Watch. If I squeeze my hand over my watch face, and hold it close to my body, it usually will not catch it. Otherwise it does. Metal detection is funny...

    Metal Detecting Gear

    This sounds like on of those "fake methods" to throw people off. Most commercially available metal detectors of the hand held size would have trouble reading a coin inside a closed hand. Make it watch size and you'll have no luck.

    Tips on getting back into magic

    It's okay sometimes to just admire from afar, or to think about magic and watch magic but not perform. Do it when you feel compelled, not because it's a chore. I backed away for 7 years and tried many times to push myself back into it but the problem was I was never accepting of the small amount...

    subscription box

    The idea of most subscription boxes is "discovery", that you get a chance to try a big selection of new products (whether it's cosmetics/grooming/food/etc) with minimal financial risk. Usually the products sourced are samples. Our company has manufacturers reach out to us, give us the samples...

    subscription box

    Here's how it would likely have to work. So by comparison, the company I work for ships around 1,000,000 boxes a month. We've grown tremendously and have really disrupted the industry that we sample. We make a ton of different box types. So box 14 is different from box 67 and so on. We might...

    subscription box

    I work for a very large subscription box company. I thought about this idea a few months ago actually as well, but had no contacts to share with. If anyone wants to to get in touch with me I would be more than happy to share more information about the type of viability this sort of business...
