BICYCLE FULL MOON SPECIAL EDITION (SE) – LENTICULAR MOTION LENS – SIGNED

Rare and discontinued Bicycle Full Moon Special Edition playing card deck by Crooked Kings Cards, released in 2015 and printed in the USA by the United States Playing Card Company (USPCC).

This is the SPECIAL EDITION (SE), featuring the remarkable Lenticular Motion Lens on the front of the tuck box. When the box is tilted and viewed from different angles, the artwork changes, creating the transformation of a man into a werewolf beneath the full moon.

SIGNED EXAMPLE

This particular example is signed, making it an especially interesting piece for collectors.

Please see the photographs for the exact signature, its placement and the condition of the deck.

IMPORTANT: This is the Full Moon SPECIAL EDITION (SE), not the separately released Limited Edition. The official Limited Edition was a different version limited to 1,500 tuck boxes and featured silver foil, a different lenticular transformation, a hand-signed and numbered Crooked Kings limited-edition band and a metal CK seal.

The Special Edition is itself distinguished from the regular Standard Edition by its spectacular lenticular tuck box.

ARTWORK

Full Moon features an extensively customised gothic werewolf design.

The backs place an arcane lunar symbol at the centre of the design, surrounded by dark ornamental scrollwork and smaller moon motifs.

The custom pips feature stone-like textures and carved details reminiscent of mystical runes.

The court cards were individually illustrated around the werewolf theme, portraying both the human characters struggling with the beast within and their fully transformed monstrous counterparts.

The result is one of the more unusual horror-themed Bicycle releases of its period and a particularly distinctive Crooked Kings deck.
