Description

Take a step back into history with our latest deck of playing cards simply called, “Round Town.” This Round Town deck of playing cards takes on the look of years gone by. Covering a span of over a hundred years, each card face highlights a photo ranging anywhere from the late 1800s to 2004. From ice storms, floods and other natural events to historical buildings, monuments and other photos that bring out the unique history of Circleville, Ohio.

Not only does the deck feature historical photos, but the face cards are designed the way “souvenir” playing cards used to be! With the round photos, historical facts and fun information, the deck is designed to be what a deck of souvenir cards should be…a souvenir. It seems anymore when you find a deck of souvenir playing cards they will have a unique photo on the back, but then have normal faces. Using normal faces on the decks has become a cheap way for manufacturers to get around what used to be a wonderful collectible! This deck holds true to history with 52 beautiful photos and 2 unique historical maps.

The card back features original artwork from U.K. Playing Card Artist, Peter Wood. Holding to our motto of “Transforming the Playing Card Industry,” the card back is made in the unique playing card art form we call “seek-n-find” art. This means that you can search for hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades hidden in the picture on the back of the cards. Of course, what would a deck of Circleville Playing Cards be without something “pumpkin!?” That is why our scarecrow character is made with a Pumpkin head.

This was the deck that started the Pumpkin Show Playing Card series & Real Souvenir Playing Card craze for us! Printed in 2005, we celebrate 20 years of the deck in 2025. From the creation of this deck, we printed historical decks of cards for over 200 historical organizations across the United States.

Casino style playing cards with a black-out center make this deck not only great for collecting, but great to play with.

We are currently selling Edition 1.0 that had a printing of 2000 decks back in 2005. This deck will not be reprinted.

The Circleville Pumpkin Show is located in Circleville Ohio and is one of the largest festivals in the United States.

PLEASE NOTE: There are a VERY limited amount of decks left to sell! Once these cards are gone, we will not be going back for a reprint. So if you have been thinking about getting one, you better do it now before THEY ARE ALL GONE!!
