Even when not in use, the deck is a work of graphic art and sure to be a truly unique addition to any collection, and the start of a fascinating journey of experimentation and evolution as the series grows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePhotography by Ryan Smith.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more \u003cstrong\u003ecard magic\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecard tricks\u003c\/strong\u003e, and professional physical magic from MagicKits.com.
