Fake or Real Kem cards ? (1 Viewer)

I bought a set of kem cards, then I noticed in the back of deck box doesn't have a text that my old one had.
Any idea that this set is fake or not ?

This is my old card box:

This is the new one:

 

[Thomacetti]

In December 2019, The United States Playing Card Company became a subsidiary of Belgian card manufacturer Cartamundi
These were still made in the factory in Erlanger and 100% real, don't worry.

Cartamundi is fazing out the name of the old mother company (USPCC), the Cincy factory was closed down in 2009.

Pre-uspcc Kems are the best. Uspcc -Kems are the worst

Do not agree, they still pretty good, I love "pre" KEM, mostly because brighter colors.
Best cards I ever played are Casino Circle Back, never had better cards.

But taking "fake Kem"... That happens, seen some decks on eBay that been described as Kem but at closer look you can see that back is very poorly made image that somewhat resamble Arrow pattern.

USPCC is acquired all the companies one by one, as Thomacetti said now cartamundi owns uspcc.
I don't like it at all, because when all companies go under one flag, competition goes away, in a result price increases and innovation dies.

Well, on the bright side Bicycle and Copags are now much better quality, printed by Fournier.

I do belive that we may expect Kem to sell only to casinos in a couple of years.
