From the subtle elegance of the tuckcase to the guilloché back design, Aristocrat® playing cards regard wealth and prestige. A true luxury deck of playing cards. When they were originally released in the 1930s, they quickly became the preferred deck among card men for their unique linen finish and exceptional longevity.
Unfortunately they were long out of print and forgotten by all but collectors. We are pleased to announce however they have recently been reprinted by the US Playing Card Company and are available once again.
For over 100 years, the U.S. Playing Card Company has been the leading manufacturer of premier playing cards. Because of their history and commitment to quality, we use their services to print all our custom playing cards.

Really luxurious and elegant deck. Buy one for sure! This deck is only $5, but it feels and looks much more expensive. Great for flourishes and magic. You will give it 5 stars too!

This is one of those decks that I've seen in old photos of the masters, and I've been tracking them down for years. Now they're out again! They are crazy smooth, easy to handle, and look amazing. I like the reds more, the deep red looks very good but the blue looks very plain to me. The only thing about them that I did not like is they didn't seem to have a very long shelf life for me. They seemed to get gummy and dirty at bit faster than other decks I've used. Still, amazing decks, and maybe if I've washed my hands more I could still be using them. Will order again.

When I bought the Aristocrats I wasn't realy excited until I felt how smoothly the cards fanned and spread. The back design is amazing and everything about this deck is superb. Get this deck now!!!!!

I finally bought one of these a week ago and I can say with all honesty that they are my favorite cards to play and perform with. The linen finish feels exceptional and the artwork is too!

These cards combine luxury and elegance. They are just perfect for relaxing especially for gambling routines. The cards I have saw for the first time in a clip with the great Ricky Jay ("The Ranger, the Cook and a Hole in the Sky). I would recommend these cards everyone.

Since the time I opened my first pack of A's, back in 1975, I have not found a consistantly better deck of cards. Not only the look, but the feel and handleing ability.
I was devestated when they stopped producing them, I even kept a few decks both red and blue unopened from the old days. But now we have the new one's...again the deck of choice and the most elegant and usable deck that I have ever used. A fan for ever...

These cards are truly the deck of choice. The only decks that I've found that even come close are the Bee Stingers and the Monarchs. These cards handle like a dream. The heavier stock and the linen finish make these cards a joy to work with and they are without a doubt my favorite cards to work with in almost any situation.

Very elegant and classy look. The cards are smooth feeling and easy to us, have a great pop and feel. I often find that, when I start practicing with them, I get distracted looking at the cards because they are so beautiful. The deep red of the red cards looks amazing, and all the yellow on the court cards is replaced with gold, and the look is stunning. I'm so excited they've been re-released.

I have the blue aristocrats and they are just phenomenal, these are the cards that made me more interested in cards. I love the baby blue and the almost pinkish colour these decks come in because a lot of the cards that come out now are dark where as these ones are light and almost "happy". these cards have a nice fan, great handling and they are definitely worthwhile.

Simply put, this is the best deck I've handled in years. The linen finish combined with aristocrat stock is one of the best combinations I've experienced throughout my many years of handling cards. When it comes to this deck, it should be a no brainer. An elegant back design with luxurious feel and exquisite handling, what more could you want?
