The Secret Tale of Ragnar Lodbrok by the Dutch Card House Company

Now on Kickstarter, the Secret Tale series by the Dutch Card House Company comprises exclusive limited deluxe playing cards, adorned with intricately designed artwork, each portraying undisclosed narratives of renowned legends never previously unveiled.

Following the success of the Secret Tale of King Arthur and the Secret Tale of Robin Hood, the Dutch Card House Company unveils its third instalment, delving into the enigmatic story of Ragnar Lodbrok. This narrative explores Ragnar’s journey from humble beginnings as a farmer to his ascent as a Viking King, entwined with the mysterious symbolism of a bee sting.

Maintaining the series’ signature aesthetic, the design seamlessly blends traditional folk art with vintage color schemes. Inspired by Ragnar Lodbrok’s saga, the back design incorporates a plethora of motifs, contributing to the cohesive ambience of the Secret Tale series.

Like its predecessors, the Ragnar Black Bee edition features elements that resonate with its storyline, while the White Bee edition serves as a collector’s item, symbolizing the vibrant Viking era. Limited to just 350 units, this edition boasts a numbered insignia, adding to its exclusivity.

The newly designed Courts spotlight central characters from the Secret Tale of Ragnar Lodbrok, some of whom have remained concealed for centuries until now. The artwork featured in the Secret Tales series is entirely exclusive, offering collectors a unique addition to their collection.

The Ace of Spades provides insight into Ragnar’s life narrative, while the customized pips and font enhance the deck’s allure. The Limited Orange Warrior edition, available in 150 prints, features opulent foil embellishments on uncoated orange paper stock, creating a luxurious tactile experience.

In addition to the three decks available during the Kickstarter campaign, enthusiasts can choose from Gilded decks and extra accessories. All decks will be printed by WJPC, ensuring the highest quality standards for discerning collectors. Pledge starts from $19 on Kickstarter.
