Three NEW Jerry’s Nuggets are NOW available on Kickstarter for the FINAL 48 hours. For this release, the Conjuring Arts and Riffle Shuffle collab Jerry’s will be factory marked and released to the public for the FIRST TIME ever!
In 1970, Jerry’s Nugget Casino in Las Vegas printed what would become one of the most collectible playing card decks ever manufactured by the United States Playing Card Company. They made them for the tables but opted not to use them and put them in storage for 20 years! in the late 90s, these cards sold out, yet the demand continued to grow. Today, authentic original Jerry’s Nugget cards are among the most desirable and expensive modern decks on the market.
Three new colorways will be available during this campaign: Icy Blue (suit marked), Atomic Red (suit marked), and Felt Green (suit & value marked). This new colorway creates the iconic Jerry’s Nugget back design, blending a timeless look with a modern aesthetic. Using a single hue against the white cardstock helps all the intricate details of the design POP. This particular monochromatic approach also helps in hiding the unique marking system.
There are two secret systems; one for suites and the other for value. The Icy Blue and Atomic Red cards are marked to identify suits only.
The Felt Green cards enable you to determine both the value and suit of any given card. According to the campaign page,
After testing a handful of ideal marking systems, we chose two easily read versions. Each of them is a marriage of form and function. We call them the Tower Marking Systems. And with a bit of memorization and a few minutes of practice, you’ll be able to read the backs of the cards without hesitation.
The decks will be printed by the USPCC on thin-crushed Premium (Bee) stock and come with individually numbered seals. Pledge starts at $13 on Kickstarter. Gilded decks will be available as an add-on and if you pledge SIX decks or more, a custom Monotone Series Jerry’s Nugget FOILED half-brick box will be added for free. Also, when the campaign ends, you’ll get easy-to-follow instructions in PDF format teaching you how to use the Tower Marking Systems.
