Customer reviews for Double Face Playing Cards (Bicycle)

Maksymilian
Great gaff deck to perform miracles such as Anniversary Waltz, and with Bicycle quality. You can perform anything that needs the double facers using cards that come with this deck. If you need the double faced cards buy this one.
James
These cards are perfect bicycle quality, they will suit me just fine… the only issue is (insert tired joke about the back color here). Other than that, these cards exactly what I need.
Thomas
I love these! The pips and indexes work with all the basic red and blue rider backs, and a slew of other, similar cards as well. Essentially, two sets of double face cards come in the box, so if one desired to do so, these could be used to load several decks for different effects, just like other gaff cards... the bonus to using double faced cards is that practically NO ONE expects the use of double faced cards, lol.
These cards are GREAT!!
David
Just as expected, Bicycle quality cards with double faces to use for your favorite tricks. No backs obviously, so you can use them with any standard Bike deck.
Luciano
I was actually expecting to get a deck with all cards following the same logic, such as Hearts/Spades, Diamonds/Clubs, with values adding 13 (so the exception would be the Kings). But I actually got different kinds of double faced cards, which will work for me. Not sure if this pack is always the same or if it can vary. So if you need specific cards to be back to back, I recommend contacting the support just to make sure you will get what you need.
Micah
This is a great gaffed deck of cards. You will get a deck of fifty-six (including two double faced jokers and blank cards) double faced cards. If you want to do tricks with random double faced cards, or you want to do mcdonalds aces this is for you. This is an amazing deck of cards and I recommend you get it.
Vernon
Standard double faced cards look just like any other bicycle deck. Quality is great.
Rob
I order these all the time and they're great. Exactly what you'd expect: double face bicycle playing cards. Wide assortment of all different cards; some have jokers or blanks on one face, just FYI.
Garry
Great, mine came with a good choice of double facers, very usefull to have if you no how to use these cards.
Gerhard
These gaffs are Bicycles so the quality is up there. Also comes with a few tutorials which are really clever. I always keep a backup of double facers for tricks such as Anniversary Waltz, McDonalds Aces etc. There are some interesting combos, good to get this with the mis-indexed cards as well. There are enough duplicates as well to keep you going. I can recommend this.
Johnson
It's hard to give this a true review but for my purposes, it's just not great. In an effort to appease a wide group of people, you get a deck that is a hodge podge of random double facers that may or may not be useful for you. For example: one side is a Joker, one side is blank, both sides the same card. There are 16 (out of 52!) of these types of cards in my pack, which are not useful for me. Then the other ones...many of them are annoyingly close together in number (6/7, 10/J, etc). I would've liked the cards to be more contrasting. So all in all, it's a pretty awful deck for me. But might be great for your purposes/needs.

Quality is standard USPCC - so no problems there. But you never know what you get (perhaps depending on the supplier). My first deck was OK in that sense that I could find all values of card on both sides of the deck. This deck came with a round sticker "Official Bicycle DOUBBLE FACE Magic Deck" on it.
The second deck has a photo copied Murphy's Magic wrapper around it - this deck has three times the same cards namely KS/8H, QS/9H, JS/10H, 10S/JH, 9S/QH, 8S/KH, 7S/AC, 7H/AD and only once the cards AS/4H, 2S/3H, 3S/2H, 4S/AH, 5S/Joker, 5H/Joker, 6S/Blank, 6H/Blank. The result is that I do not have full deck of values whichever way I turn the cards!
David
These Double Face playing cards fit in perfectly with any regular deck of Bicycle cards. Using them with the Bicycle Short Deck that I also bought from Vanishing Inc allows for lots of extra effects. I was looking for the right combination of Double Face Aces (red Ace with a black card / black Ace with a red card) so this pack was perfect for my needs. Thanks.
Ed
What to say about double face playing cards? Well, these are fantastic bicycle quality and will fit seamlessly in your deck of cards, for tricks like Anniversary. The only reason why it loses a point for me, is because we continue to get face cards where the value is the same on both sides, eg. queen of hearts / queen of hearts. What are they used for?!
Josh
These double face playing cards are great! They fit right in with my Bicycle and Tally Ho decks, the 2 most common decks I use. They can be used for a variety of effects. Some have the same face on both sides while others have a variety of opposite faces (there are even Joker gimmicks included). By having a whole deck of these I can be sure that I will have everything I need to perform some awesome card magic for a long time to come! Thanks Vanishing Inc.

The Bicycle Double Face Playing Cards are an essential addition to any magician’s toolkit. As a performer who reads a lot and draws inspiration from books written by: Harapan Ong, Jean-Pierre Vallarino, and has Etienne Pradier’s lectures, there are strong routines that utilize these cards and make for incredibly memorable effects.

One standout routine I regularly perform is Anniversary Waltz, where two spectators’ signed cards magically merge into one. The emotional impact of handing this unique souvenir to the audience is unmatched—it always leaves them amazed. I’ve also adapted an Etienne Pradier routine using double facers, allowing me to seamlessly switch cards and hand them out for inspection without breaking the illusion.

These cards are perfect for visual tricks like "Card Fusion," "Ultimate Transpositions," and creating impossible moments that defy explanation. Their high-quality Bicycle stock ensures they feel identical to a regular deck, so spectators are none the wiser.

Whether you’re a beginner exploring new effects or an experienced magician crafting intricate routines, double face cards open up endless possibilities. From close-up to parlor magic, their utility is unparalleled. It's been fun to explore books and see what kind of impossible revelations/transpositions utilizing these cards on a frequent basis.
Garry
Great fun deck, lots of magic. You can perform with these cards

  • Peter asks: Annoyingly this question has already been answered, but I can’t get on with my day! So I’ll ask it rephrased. What colour are the backs?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:There are no backs. They are double faced cards.

  • Danny asks: I need a deck where on one side the deck looks like a random shuffled deck, on the reverse side, the cards are in new deck order. Will this handle that?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:No this will not do that for you. What you need is exactly one of the decks we had specially made for Joshua Jay's most recent release, "Reverse Logic".

  • Joseph asks: Do you have a deck of double faced Bicycle cards that are all regular jokers on one side, and the guarantee card jokers on the opposite sides?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:No, and we're not aware of a deck like that existing. You'd need to make them yourself. Here's a free tutorial teaching you how to do it in four minutes! https://www.vanishingincmagic.com/card-magic/learn-to-split-cards-in-four-minutes/

  • Christopher asks: Could I use this deck to assemble the Tamed Cards routine from Tommy Wonder or are they so randomly printed that there is no way to know ahead of time if I'd get the correct cards or something similar as in court cards on one side and number card on the other?

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:You are better off by just buying a Tamed Cards set since the double facers are randomly printed.

  • David asks: Does this include the Joker/5C cards.

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:It does not

  • Sieko asks: Is one of the sides in new deck order and the other in a mixed order ? I am looking for a deck that is mixed on one side and in new deck order on the other side.

    • 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:They are in a random configuration. Box sides are mixed.

  • Youyuan asks: Is it possible to have a deck of all the double backers the same? For example, a deck of 52 double backers with one side AD and the other side QH.

    • 1. Youyuan responds:Sorry I mean the double facer cards all the same.
