What brand of playing cards do you use?

None of my playing cards are branded, except for one set by Nintendo.

Bicycle, of course.

Poker-sized Hoyle shell-backs.

Bikes are for magicians, not card-players.

Whatever's cheapest at the drugstore and isn't zombie-styled (ugh.)

Where can I get these?

I have never seen these before.

Can confirm Hoyles are much harder to do slight of hand with.

Ebay? Amazon? Just make sure you're getting the "Civil War Era Replica" faces, because there are newer Jack Daniels branded cards with boring normal faces.

Vintage decks from the 70s and earlier (top row of pic related) are noticeably larger than poker-sized playing cards (kind of like some European novelty decks), but there are also repros from the late 90s made by Hoyle which are standard poker-size (bottom row).

The vintage decks tend to be more expensive, but they're better quality if you can find them still sealed; the repros are a little cheaper but easier to handle and much easier to find (and replace) brand new.

Those look pretty neat. My brother got me a really nice deck of cards for Christmas 'cause he knows I've been picking up some card tricks lately. The only problem I can think of is that while it's nice to have a really great looking deck of premium cards to perform with, people probably trust Bicycle cards a little more.
