Deck of Playing Cards Idea

[5toclose]

Hi there,

I'm thinking of creating a deck of cards that when all the card faces are put together, would form a mural of a US Flag. Do you think there would be interest in something like this? The backs of the cards would black with a modern red/white/blue design that looks very sharp.

What are your thoughts? Any potential? Thanks for your feedback.

I'd make the product first an then pitch.

Exactly... "You can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?"

Sounds tacky and of no use whatsoever. Maybe as a display on a wall. Or after a series of false shuffles you deal out all the cards in order and scream "MMMERRICAAA!" while freedom fries rain down on the crowd.

Really i dont think it's a great idea. Would be marketable to a gift shop but not to magicians.

I feel that this idea is good, but it's not incredibly unique (see "Jigsaw puzzles"), and has very few practical uses. One might be better off purchasing an actual US flag, and a deck of regular cards, as opposed to something that has both functions, but can only perform one at a time.

Created it!

I did end up creating this and just launched it on Kickstarter. Check it out: http://kck.st/KKif8k
