Golden Spike Gold Edition Playing Cards Deck LPCC

$9.99 USD

Limited "Gold Edition" Golden Spike Playing Cards are inspired by the completion of the 1st Transcontinental Railroad On May 10th, 1869. It was the first rail line that connected the east to the west and revolutionized transportation and commerce in a post Civil War United States. A Golden Spike was created as a commemorative piece to celebrate the completion of the 1st transcontinental railroad and was driven into the ground where the Union Pacific met the Central Pacific Railroad at Promontory Point, Utah. When the hammer rang out and the golden spike was driven into the ground, a new era of industry and expansion rang out across the United States

Each playing card deck has been illustrated using a cross hatch technique to mimic the style of engraving and lithographs that were common to the time period. Each card has been researched and given ample time to create and refine each illustration. 

Features: 

  • Printed by the Legends Playing Card Co.
  • Each court card, Ace and Ad card has original illustrations, capturing the feel of the era and the major players in the creation of the 1st Transcontinental Railroad
  • The gold foiled and embossed tuck cases depict the Union Pacific #119 train
  • There is an Ad card that will give the names of the characters

Puts the Gold in Golden Spike

This Limited Edition puts on the golden shine on this deck. There is a new tuck design with embossing, gold foil and inks. The cards have gold metallic inks on the back, red and gold metallic inks for the pips and indices on the front. New diptych jokers showing the scene where the 2 trains meet and the golden spike being hammered into the ground. Other details remain the same.
