A Fully Illustrated Bicycle Deck from the World of Unicorn Fantasy
Bicycle Unicorns Playing Cards by Anne Stokes & John Woodward transform a traditional deck of cards into a gallery of fantasy artwork. Released in 2018, this richly illustrated Bicycle deck brings the mysterious and magical world of unicorns to all 52 playing-card faces, with artwork ranging from luminous woodland scenes to heraldic unicorn imagery and dramatic fantasy portraits.
The deck is credited on the tuck to Anne Stokes & John Woodward. Stokes is internationally known for detailed fantasy artwork spanning enchanted forests, dragons, gothic subjects, and mythical creatures, and the Unicorns deck draws heavily on that distinctive fantasy style.
The reverse features an ornate blue heraldic unicorn design, while custom Jokers and special cards continue the theme throughout the deck. Despite the extensive custom artwork, these are genuine Bicycle playing cards printed in the USA by the United States Playing Card Company on premium Bicycle cardstock with Classic Air-Cushion Finish for smooth shuffling and handling.
