A Tribute to Bicycle's Heritage:
Travel back to the turn of the 20th century with the Bicycle Autocycle No. 1 Collector's Tin. This special edition set celebrates over 130 years of playing card history by reviving one of the brand's most intricate and beloved back designs. Originally printed from 1901 to 1906, the Autocycle No. 1 back depicts a rider on a motorized bicycle—a cutting-edge marvel of its time—surrounded by complex scrollwork and a distinctive chain border.
Two Premium Decks:
Inside the tin, you'll find two complete decks of premium Bicycle playing cards featuring the historic Autocycle No. 1 back design:
-
Purple Deck: A rich, regal purple colorway that highlights the detailed line work.
-
Green Deck: A vibrant, classic green that offers a fresh take on the vintage design.
Both decks feature a custom Ace of Spades and retro-style faces that perfectly complement the antique aesthetic. The tuck cases are inspired by hand-drawn elements from an 1892 Bicycle® Juniors deck, adding another layer of historical charm.
Exclusive Collector's Tin:
The cards come housed in a beautiful metal collector's tin. The tin features embossed graphics that mirror the card design, providing a durable and stylish way to store and display your decks. It’s a perfect keepsake for collectors and a great gift for anyone who appreciates the art of playing cards.
