Renegades and Rogues Bicycle brand playing cards.

 
Renegades & Rogues is more than just a deck of cards. To Americans it is much more. It is a part of a time that happened very close to where you might be sitting right now, well over a hundred years ago. This deck of cards sports renditions of actual fliers and wanted posters printed in early America. They depict ladies, lovers, and killers of the 1800's.
The dark images are overlaid onto a smooth wooden imaged background, that gives one a feeling of warm nostalgia. Indescribable by any words I might use, they will make any card game feel more personal.

The numbers, letters, and suits, look as if they have been carved from the wood itself.
Most Everyone has a deck of cards at home... Let me elaborate. It seems that just when you were sure you would never again use that deck of cards in that drawer over yonder, you have to pull it out for a new drinking game your brother has learned.

Wouldn’t it be great if at that time you could pull out this very beautiful but very functional deck of Renegades & Rogues playing cards, and maybe even implement the little images in the corner of the cards into your game?

Those little images show how that person died. If there is no image, the person died of natural causes.
