11th Hour Playing Cards are a perfect collaboration and melding of the minds of Emilysleights52 and Bill Davis Magic. This marked deck of playing cards represents the limited time we all have left and what we intend to do with it. With Emily's vision of time running out and Bill's fascination with the time 11:11, they created this perfectly masterful timepiece.
The tuck, deck and its marking system were developed from top to bottom by Emily and Bill who enlisted the design assistance of Daniel Schneider, designer of the Orbit deck series V3 and above, and Destino, the creator of the Hannya deck series. This is Destino's ORIGINAL fully marked symmetrical dual-clock back design!
Full of symbolism and hidden meaning, this deck showcases pocket watch faces indicating 11 minutes past the last hour - the 11th hour: "A Point in Time That is Nearly Too Late."
What kind of deck of cards is this?
This is a high-quality standard poker-size deck made by USPCC (The United States Playing Card Company), the most widely known and trusted playing card company in the industry, housed in a gorgeous specialty tuck by Gambler's Warehouse.
What do they feature?
11th Hour Marked Playing Cards contain mostly standard Bicycle faces on classic card stock with air cushion finish. All colors have been changed to a classy deeper red and a beautiful bronze that compliments the velvet-soft black vellum tuck featuring bronze foil inside and out.
The Card backs feature a custom back design with traditional thick borders and a hidden one-way back design indicated by a dark marking in one of the crowns. 55 of the card backs are fully marked including the duplicate 9 of Clubs, custom Ace of Spades and both unique custom reveal Jokers. All custom courts feature pocket watches (by Daniel Schneider)!
The deck also includes a 2-sided ad card featuring the designers and explaining the marking system.
