i am curious to know if any one else besides me has kept the first deck of cards that started their whole interest into magic.

The thing is that I started with Parlour Magic and didn't use cards frequently until 2 years into my magic. Also, a specific performances was what started my interest in magic. So this doesn't really apply to me.

Well, i've kept the first deck i ever bought to do magic with. I guess i can say it's the deck that got me started It's a red Bee Quality Casino deck, and tho it's really messed up now i will always keep it!


The thing that got me into magic in the first place was seeing David Copperfield here in Sweden when i was about.. well 5 maybe. I'll never forget the man who watched his legs walk around on the stage while the overpart of his body was on a chair.

I wish I had kept it. I'm sure I do but I'm would have no clue which one it is though. It is a shame because it would have been cool to keep.

Yep, I don't actually know which deck it is, but I think I still have it.

If you're talking about actual first deck of cards, regardless of performing magic with it, then I doubt I still own it.

 

[adjones]

Nope, that was over five years ago, and I threw it away because it was just one I had laying around the house and it was a piece of crap.

I have the box

It was a blue backed bicycle jumbo index

I had a red backed Bee Deck. Unfortunately, it is no longer with us - as it had been used for many months, then turned into a rising deck, then taken apart and dipped in water, which was then aged with tea-bags, and then thrown out.

 

[EugeneSoh]

yeah i have my second deck... i passed my first one down to my students and they gave it to my flourisher friends, and passed to my friends (my flourisher friends student). its a hot potato

I STILL have my first bike. Worn out, old burnt, pips cut out, drawed on, yeah.

I have my first bike too. I remember when I learned to ride.

 

[chriswiehl]

[TRM]

Unfortunately, I lost it ='(

My first deck was this red plastic coated Planet Dexter deck. It came with a book of self-working card tricks. I've had it since I was like 7. I don't use it anymore, but it's on display.

My first deck was a Svengali deck my dad got me when I was 11 at the Pike Place Magic Shop in Seattle. It still works good but looks terrible.

 

[Close-Up Expert]

Well I have my first deck of cards I used when I started at Red Robin back on December 5, 2006. And yes, I can still fan through it and remember most of the people lol.....

I also have a deck of cards I got from Darwin Ortiz when he lectured here....

 

[Jakeh]

I was thinking about keeping it in tact, but I ripped about 8 of them and made a double backer and a double face card with them... so there aren't many more left.

I kind of regret it, now.
