Question about Theory11 decks and jokers

[Tower of Lunatic Meat]

Okay. So I've decided to embark on a journey of acquiring at least one joker from every Theory11 made deck for a NON-DESTRUCTIVE project. Problem is that I'm really not too privy with how some of these decks came into being and how the jokers look. So I need the help of you lucky ducks who have these decks. So here we go:

- Steampunks - were these a collaboration deck? Or are they just a Bicycle deck SOLD by Theory11

- Decks with different variations (Monarchs, Artisans, Mystery Box, etc.) - are the jokers different on these decks regarding the different colored backs?

- Wynn - same thing as Steampunks. We're these already made and just SOLD by Theory11?

- JAQK - what does the joker look like? This may determine if I chase this particular joker down or not.



Any help is greatly appreciated!

I only know the answer to the second question. As far as Monarchs are concerned the jokers seem to be the same despite what the colored backs are. I have the Blue,Red,White, and Green Monarchs and they all have the same jokers.

Also I just checked the Artisan Jokers are also the same.

Steampunks: Yes it was a collab, theory11 is mentioned on the box and has an ad card in it.

Color variations do not have different colored jokers from what I've seen in the Monarchs, Artisans, Tycoons, Jaqks, etc.

Wynns were not produced by theory11, but were bought by t11's Chris Kenner so they were sold on this site. (pretty sure this is correct)

Here are the Jaqk jokers:

Steampunk / Silver Steampunk - A theory11 design that we licence to US Playing Card Company. They have their own variation of this deck w/o embossing or a foil tuck case.

Variations - Typically the faces of each deck are the same within a specific style (Monarch jokers are all essentially identical).

Wynn - Not made by theory11. Made by the Wynn casino in Las Vegas. Three colors were made (blue-ish, red, and brown). We ended up purchasing a large number of the brown when that design was discontinued.

JAQK - See Bryant's post above for photos.

Brett, I've kept all the jokers from all the decks I've bought from Theory11 and Art of Play. I have them all in a tuck case with label Misc. I am willing to mail them to you. PM me if you are interested because I have no use for them , I'm one of those guys that takes out the jokers and premium cards when I open a new deck. Ill post an image of them soon.

Here is the backs of them anyway

That you for the help, everyone.

As for the JAQK. I had this idea that the joker was a wine bottle. This idea I have involves performing for kids so I was worried that having a 'wine bottle' joker would deter that search. But hey! No need to worry anymore. It's a big 'J'! Search is back on!

Again. That's for all the information and pictures! This project will take a while to complete, but I figure that once it does, this project will actually come into fruition.
