4.0 out of 5 stars Great deck. Some qualms., March 22, 2004

Excellent quality playing cards. Sturdy & smooth. Cool camouflage backing, too.

Main qualm: 11 of the 52 cards (25%) don't have photos, but rather blackened "no photo available" images. Kinda disappointing.

Note: My first deck was INCOMPLETE...no heart cards! (Amazon quickly replaced that defective deck). So, check your deck when it arrives.

For those skeptics out there, I assure you these are the real thing. I just received my set from Amazon and they are very good quality... very durable and coated in plastic to prevent damage. It says on the box they are from the maker of BICYCLE brand playing cards - a very well-known name brand.

The 2 jokers included in the set give you a list of Iraqi Military Ranks and Arab titles as well as a few other bits of trivia. I was very satisfied with my purchase and the camouflage backing makes the set look even more interesting.
