UNCUT SHEETS

First off does anyone actually collect these anymore??

Secondly,

Best Uncut sheets of all time?

I'm looking for 3 or 4 Uncuts to have framed and hung on the wall as you go upstairs in in my house.
I want these to be all portrait rather than landscape (this rules out Kings Wild's latest decks) and will be displaying them with the court cards facing forwards. I also want them to be totally different to each other and a talking point for guests who come to visit.

#1 is obviously the HOTRS Cartomancer deck and most likely I will end up with decks that haven't been released yet as I know older uncuts are much harder to track down.

But out of curiosity which other decks/uncuts would you recommend?

Of the very few uncuts I have: Emmanuel Jose's transformation decks (I'm missing two, if anyone wants to hook a brother up!) and the Tally Ho Gaff deck.

I don't know the dimensions of either of these, but I would recommend Royal Mischief for a quirky option. You might also consider Culturae Animalis - really incredible antrhopomorphic animal illustrations and the court cards create triptychs. There are a number of decks with 52 different pieces of art like Playing Arts or The Ultimate Deck (Playing Arts Zero even has an app for animated AR cards). Another recommendation would be Luminosity. Those courts tell a fantastic story.

I just got my uncut Keymaster Tarot sheet. Yeah, it is freaking awesome. I am not an uncut collector though, but I do have a few special uncut sheets in inventory.

I only have the Ultimate Deck uncut sheet. It still needs a better-fitting frame....

You’re looking for uncut sheets of decks with 56 cards. These are typically printed in portrait with cards arranged in an 8 by 7 array. Uncut sheets of 54 cards are typically printed in landscape in a 9 by 6 array.

My personal favorite sheet is the Keymaster Tarot, but that’s huge; at about 30” by 40” it dwarfs any others. You should check out Thirdway Industries. They have a few uncut sets available in trios, with each sheet showing unique courts. I have the Italia, Sins and Order uncut trios.

I don’t have any (yet) but I think most uncut sheets of transformation decks would look nice on display. I would love to have an uncut sheet of Pipmen World.

What's the name of Guru's transformation deck again? I'm by any means a fan of uncuts but that uncut manages to get me thinking about getting it.

Motley Pack - good recommendation as well

That’s the Motley Pack uncut. I’m thinking about getting that one, but not sure I want it for that price.

I have the Cult Movie Cards on my wall at the moment and it's always a talking point. I have limited wall space, unfortunately, so if I want something new I'll have to swap it rather than just putting another up.

Others I currently have include:

- HotRS Cartomancer (oh, how I wish Lorenzo could've told me that he was reissuing it!)
- MPC's Impressions Racing Edition
- Omnia Suprema
- Sins Anima
- All three UC 2019 No. 7s, and
- one by Laura Marcuet

i dont collect them but have acquired a couple
the keymaster tarot is epic... the hotrs faro is also stunning tho probaly gets overlooked for lack of foil

I enjoy having a few rare uncut sheets but wouldn’t say that I collect them..

Right now I have a beautiful bohemia uncut sheet, an ultimate deck uncut and a curator deck uncut, all framed. I would definitely suggest the curator one to hang on the wall given its beauty+rarity. I have recently found one on ebay, here is the link:

Other than this I have around 20 uncut sheets but probably going to sell most of them

Thanks for all the suggestions so far guys.

Timmargh, Great call. I think a UC No.7 Uncut sheet should definitely be 1 for the list.

Speaking of uncut sheets.. I have found a real gem that I did not the existence of!!

You can't go wrong with uncuts of transformation decks. The below, by ecNate, is one of my favorite videos and collection.

I do have a few framed uncuts of non-transformation decks and I have always observed that even the guests or visitors prefer transformation uncuts as the conversation starters.
