I'm the occasional card player, and I wanted some cool cards to use for my next game night. These have not disappointed. They have a linen finish and are very silky in terms of handling. If you flop the stack down, the cards will slide a little. And the artwork! Oh the artwork! I love looking at the images of the famous buildings. Each suit covers buildings/structures from a different time period. And though the building drawings are great, they are minimalist enough that you can still clearly see the suits, numbers, etc and play a normal game with them. I find that these cards are great to give as gifts, particularly when you can't or don't want to spend a lot (like in office white elephant holiday gift exchanges). They are novel so people get a kick out of them, even though they aren't expensive. If you like architecture or novelty cards, give them a try.

These cards are absolutely stunning! I grew up in a family that always had a deck of cards around. I now happily continue the tradition with this travel inspired deck.

These are beautiful cards, well made, and each individual card is unique with each suit representing a different historical era. These are also priced quite well so if you want a nice deck of cards and especially if you're a collector, I highly recommend picking these up.

I really love the style of this set and have enjoyed playing with them. They do a great job of including international architecture, not just US centric, as well as cultural treasures (such as the Rapa Nui moai). Some minor factual mistakes, such as stating that the FLW Robie House is in Oak Park rather than Hyde Park. About as durable as normal quality playing cards. Mine are showing wear now after a couple months of casual play. Enjoying them thoroughly.

My grandson collects playing cards & this is one of the best decks he has! There is a building with a fact about it on each card. The thickness & colors are good quality as well. Bicycle did a great job with this deck!

These were so beautiful and neat and actually they make another fun unique way to play the game. The price was also not bad for what you receive greats as a decorative piece or to play with and do some fun trivia.

This card set is so cool. The cards are beautiful and there is a different architectural design / historical building on every single card.

The artwork/draftmanship on each and every card is to be seen to be believed. Cards are no longer just numbers and picture cards. This should be highly collectible.

Muy buenos productos

Achei ótimo, poderiam ter acrescentado os projetistas nas obras que sabemos quem são, como complemento.

Bellissima edizione delle carte Bicycle che omaggiano alcune delle più belle architetture del mondo. La qualità è la solita delle Bicycle e la grafica è splendida ed unica.
