First Look: Iron Horse Playing Cards by Jody Eklund

Designed by Jody Eklund, the Iron Horse Playing Cards pays homage to one of Jody's most successful decks, the Golden Spike Black Ink Edition. The Iron Horse will feature fully custom illustration, including the card backs, courts, Aces and Jokers. According to Jody,

The Iron Horse premium playing cards has some of the most intricate details I've ever designed. This is a fully custom Illustrated deck of playing cards that has been painstakingly scrutinized on every level.

One of the most notable features of this project is that this deck is inspired by a short story,"Attack on the Iron Horse" written by Jody's good friend Ricky Cassford.

The Iron Horse will be available in two editions: Standard and the Signature Edition. Each tuck box will be hot stamp foiling in stunning silver and black. The Signature Edition will be embossed and sealed with an individually numbered sticker. Pledge starts from $13 and the deck will be printed by Legends Playing Card Co. on their classic finish card stock.

The Iron Horse will be launching on Kickstarter on May 6 May 8 and will be looking to raise a goal of $20k. This project will come with a $5 pdf download that you can add-on that will have all of the character backstories and the short story of the "Attack on the Iron Horse".
