I don't want anything too obvious like a picture, but a more subtle one way design would be great.

Hi there,


Tally Ho circle backs have a very subtle marking.

On the faces as well as the backs. :wink:

If the spectator doesn't engage in the effect,
then the only thing left is the method.

I'd go with Tally Hos, too. And yes, mark the faces while you're at it. There's a great effect in MMM that uses a one-way faced deck.

Bicycle cards do not always have an even sized margin. Sometimes one end is thinner than the other. This can be used for subtle one-way'ness.

Cheers guys, I had a quick look at Tally-Ho Circles before on Google images. Must have been subtle they looked 2 way to me :lol:

Thanks for the tip in MMM, I'll have a re-read!
