The Beetle Backs, presented by The Gentleman Wake and designed by Widakk Design, is the culmination of a two-year long effort to create a deck of cards perfect for Collectors, Players and Magic Enthusiasts everywhere. Classic and beautiful, evoking turn-of-the-20th-century style and elegance and the finest modern handling and playing card printing techniques, The Beetle Backs also tells the Kafkaesque tale of an embattled entomologist deep in study of his chosen field; the Dynastinae subfamily of scarab beetles. For Players, Collectors, and Magic Enthusiasts, The Beetle Backs is a masterwork collection of Decks and Accessories; a perfect union of classically inspired illustration and modern design, masterfully realized with the absolute highest quality materials and attention to detail. Featuring cards with exquisite handling and linen finish, adorned with pantone inks and, in a some cases, cold foil. The decks are packaged within premium tuck boxes emblazoned with as many as three foil layers and deep embossing. With all the grace and elegance of turn-of-the-20th-century style, The Beetle Backs Crimson Standard Edition feature gorgeously embossed tuck cases with 3 foil layers printed on the highest quality 310 gsm cardstock. The cards within include a classic mirrored back design rendered in vibrant and eye catching color that makes them perfect for gameplay, magic, or cardistry. Metallic Pantone inks are featured on the backs and faces of Crimson Edition.
