[_jl] Antique and Modern Bicycle Collection
I've been collecting Bicycle decks for a few years now, and while I originally focused on modern decks, I've since began collecting antique and vintage decks/singles as well.
To start off, I wanted to show two decks that took me quite a while to find: a blue US8e Stag deck from 1942 and a Grand Opening deck from the opening ceremony of USPCC's new plant in 2009.

Re: [_jl] Antique and Modern Bicycle Collection
Something a bit more modern for today: the Bicycle Android/Intel v1 and v2 decks. These were handed out to attendees of trade shows around 2013 and 2014. After many months of trying to find the second version, I was recently able to add one to my collection.

Re: [_jl] Antique and Modern Bicycle Collection
For another US8c deck, here's a complete red Emblem deck in its original box that I recently picked up, I believe from 1906 (without a joker unfortunately).

Here's a blue US8c Pedal deck with a joker that I recently acquired - strangely, it came in a red US8c Pedal box:
