Dead Mans Deck

This deck of cards will sure be a conversation starter. The unusual card deck is based on the infamous death of James "Wild Bill" Hickock, a Civil War veteran and celebrated gunfighter. He was shot in the back during a poker game before he could play his hand...and legend has it that he held Aces and Eights: The Dead Man´s Hand. Each of the morbid cards has a bullet hole straight through its middle, and the infamous "Dead Man’s Hand” is splattered with red ink to symbolize blood. The design is true to the time period, with an ornate, grey pattern and old-style faces. Every deck comes with a musket ball and a scorched bullet hole through the entire deck. A deck full of details and history. Simply beautiful and creative!
