Fultons · Playing Cards

Fultons playing cards by Brad Fulton: Ace Fulton's Casino, Fulton Street 1958, Lance Mountain and more in stock. Decks to play, give and collect.

Fultons (Fulton's Playing Cards) is the playing card brand of American designer Brad Fulton, who has been designing decks since the late 2000s and has worked with Dan and Dave Buck ever since. His playing cards tell a story: an invented Las Vegas casino, the New York subway or skate culture. Here are the Fultons playing cards we have in stock and how to choose between them.

Brad Fulton and the story of Fultons

Brad Fulton has worked with the Buck brothers since their Smoke & Mirrors deck in 2008, a relationship that eventually led to Art of Play and Cardistry-Con. In 2010 he released Fulton's Clip Joint and in 2012 Ace Fulton's Casino, a deck set in a fictional casino from the golden age of Las Vegas, with vintage-style court cards and jokers that look like a marquee sign.

From there the brand has added series and collaborations: officially licensed decks from New York's MTA, editions with skaters and skate brands, and the CLUB 37 series, which celebrates ten years of Fultons. The printer varies by edition (some are made by USPCC and others by Asian printers), so the handling is not the same across all of them.

Fultons series we stock

Ace Fulton's Casino

The brand's best-known series, with an American casino look. We stock the red Classic, the black Casino and the tenth anniversary editions in Sunset Orange and Tobacco Brown, which reissue the 2012 back with inverted colours.

Play and collecting

Decks made with skateboarding figures. Lance Mountain, a member of the Bones Brigade, drew the Doughboy, with court cards caricaturing well-known skaters, and the Skating Skeletons. We also stock the Hosoi Hammerhead 40 Years and the collaborations with Hook-Ups.

Collecting

New York and others

The Fulton Street 1958, licensed by the MTA, uses the graphics of the subway map George Salomon designed in 1958. The list is completed by the western-themed Gunsmoke and the Arcade TRON Edition.
