Description

A set of two decks of playing cards, branded to Braidnor Construction Inc. Description: Two decks of playing cards, inside a hard-plastic storage case. Box: A hard plastic storage container, with a black plastic base, and a clear plastic lid with two half-circle cut-outs on opposite sides. Moulded text on the base reads "MADE IN U.S.A.", with an unidentified diamond logo in the bottom-left corner. Playing Cards: The two decks have identical, but colour opposite designs. At the centre of the card is the Braidnor text logo in the centre: A blue curved rectangle with a white border; "BRAIDNOR" in 3-D black and white block text with forced perspective; and a red with black border stylized maple leaf behind the text. The variance between the decks is the colour of the background. One is blue, the other is red. Both have a wide border with a fine black inner and wide white outer. Packaging Material: Hard plastic, clear (top) and black (base). Card Material: Heavy-weight card stock, white with black, blue, and red print.
