It's not very often that I'm excited by a "designer" deck of playing cards.
You know, those special edition cards that are often based on a theme, and cost - depending on where you purchase them - between three to eight times what you normally pay for a deck of cards. Well the "Run" deck of cards has changed my mind.
I'm not sure what the theme is, but the "Run" deck evokes to me a kind of Art Deco feel. With its gold foil and stylish images, the deck is gorgeous. Also, as you would expect, the cards handle and fan well.

The deck also comes with a couple of gaffed cards that allow you perform a Mike Skinner-style three card monte routine. You can learn the routine through an accompanying online video.

The packaging is also worth mentioning. The cards come in a sturdy, horizontal format box that is attractive, fresh, different.
In every way, this deck is for show. I really like the look of these cards.
