For Sale 1 Sealed Brick of Carta Mundi - "Station Casinos" Generic Playing Cards. $20 plus shipping. (2 Viewers)

[EDIT] More bricks available. Buy 2 for combined shipping.

Offered is this factory sealed brick (12 decks), of Station Casinos (in a generic logo for use in all Station Casinos), in a 'Circles' back design in blue.

I have NOT seen these cards in use, nor have I seen these cards as an open deck. And no, I will not be opening a brick and then a sealed deck to see the actual cards, but they are marked as "JR GIANT TECH ART". And I am not even sure what that means... a little help here would be cool.

This brick is offered at $20, plus $10 to ship to a US-only address. Or, get 2 bricks at $40 and pay prorated shipping. Prorated will be $10, plus the addition of an additional 3 lbs. (for a total of 6 lbs.) to your ZIP code.

Must use feeless PayPal, or Zelle, and shipping will be to a US-only address.

Thanks for looking! Jim

I assume these are paper cards, right?

I assume the same, as evidenced by the pricing. (I could only wish they were plastic!) As a brick, it weighs 2lbs. 12.2 oz.

Tech Art cards are made for blackjack tables. Specifically so they can be used with blackjack peek devices for the dealer to check if they have blackjack.

Here's the peek device from this YouTube screenshot

The aces have four "A"s and the 2-9 are printed a bit lower from the top edge of the card then the 10 value cards.
Here's an example from a different brand of cards

Tech Art doesn't have anything to do with the artwork on the card itself, just the position of the card numbers. The "Jr Giant" labeling refers to the size of the pips (numbers). I have no idea if the size of the pips are like the example photo above or not.

I have Cartimundi cards and mine are paper with a plastic coating. They are a bit stiff. They are made to be used in blackjack shoes and will wear out quickly if constantly held in your hand (especially if your have of hot and sweaty).

I hope this info helps.

@Carnth... WOW! Super info. I thank you. I have one and did not know that TA meant Tech Art, let alone that Tech Art faces mean what you said. I thank you for the education.

Imaged here is a TA peek viewer, with a deck of Aristocrat/JUMBO Index Tech Art cards from the El Cortez. The Ace of Spades is being used in the viewer, and the very top of the "A" can be seen in the viewer, just as you indicated.
