Anyone else seen the Black and green back Bicycle cards, OOOOh, i want.
Ive done afew searches, you can get them on ebay (US) and from elusionist (its a personal opinion but i think these are ripoff merchants!!)
I aint seen them available anywhere in the uk though?

A full deck of blacks would be cool, does anyone know if these are available?

Just emailed Magicbox see if Clive can get them in could ask Laurence aswell.
They would be nice wouldnt they!

PM me when u find out, maybe if u cud email bicycle them selves u wud get a better responce?

black cards yeah good for spookey seance magic stuff wey cool.

and the look on my forehead card would be good for when i strip out there card and stick it in my glasses

On the front of the Lennart Green dvds it look like he's using green cards. He'd probably like some green cards...

And as for Derren Brown, Well... (you get the gist)

On the Lennart videos it's just an after effect for the cover but i bet he would love them. Maybee its just a Magician thing, being used-to red and black back cards that we find other colors more appealing, saying that though, i aint seen many variations on coloured backs! I really genuinly (is that how u spell it) want some of these. I dont know what it is but i just love the thought, either black back or green (got to be bright green, not the dull type!) also black would be easier to hide eg, palming in dark settings, low light table hopping etc, ive also emailed bicycle asking about the and ill keep you's all posted!

Black and Green back Bicycles were created for use by the US Armed Forces. You can only purchase them via the Armed forces, so if you have a relative or know anyone that works in the US Armed forces, then they can get some for you. Otherwise preety much unobtainable.

I believe there are 3 types of Bicycle Deck design, Rider (as we know and love them), League (popular in South Africa I believe) and Green.

Created for the Armed forces?
Regular index cards or the Iraq ones?
And, why do the US forces need different colour back cards? Curious!

Andy,

We don't stock them as the USPCC will not sell them to us here in the UK. However I do know you can get them on Ebay!

Kind Regards,
Paul

Still nothing back from the USPCC though.

But i have a plan.......

indeed........

The Black Bikes are from ellusionist.con (no thats not a typo) labeled as "Black Tiger" the cards sport a negaive image on the back...


but at nearly $7 a deck I don't think they're worth it even if the do look awesome

I think these look cool... not sure about the silver sharpies they mentioned thou... might be a bit tarty!!!!!

ellusionist.con (no thats not a typo)
