The Latin Quarter Playing Cards is a beautiful deck originally funded on Kickstarter late last year. The deck is a collaborative effort between designer Jamie Stark and Mike McClure of Doc’s Playing Card Company and features an intricate design combined with filigree embellishments. Vintage in style with a hint of modern.
The deeply intricate tuck design pays homage to historic styles and is emblazoned with the Latin phrase “ALEA IACTA EST” which translates as “The die is cast.” The signature and special editions decks are part of the Latin Quarter Gaming Chips campaign currently funding on Kickstarter. The Signature Edition sports a black letterpress tuck with elegant black foil accents.
Meanwhile, the Special Edition tucks feature letterpress debossing and foil stamped logo with matching gilded edge cards within the tuck: gold, red, purple, and ebony.
Inside, the deck is pretty by standard traditional court designs but with a few twists including filigree embellishments and gold metallic inks.
The deck is printed by United States Playing Card Company on premium crushed stock with an embossed finish. Pledge starts at $14 on Kickstarter!
