P.S: in no way was the above message meant anything offensively, i'm sorry if you took it that way, but i was just stating my opinion, and i couldn't think of any better way to say what i meant

Not bored... It was just that I noticed this the spade in the center on the jack of spade and then I started wondering if such things could be found on other cards to... And no offence taken.

In fact, your descriptions of the patterns on the court cards are completely different to the ones in my deck. Are you sure you haven't been taking some mild halloucengens, or maybe your deck isn't bicycle, or maybe my deck isn't bicycle, or maybe the USPCC print some decks differently to others, or who knows..? Still an interesting post, thanks for sharing your thoughts

Oops...I don't think I hace used any halloucengens even though it was quite late at night (or early morning )when I wrote the post. But I did a mistake though. The deck I used was a blue and red bicycle bridge deck. Not a standard deck. But I didn't think the design would be different. And I couldn't check it with my other decks since I'm about to move to a new appartment and most of my decks are already packed in boxes.

I actually do think it's different. The backs are slightly different so I wouldn't be surprised if the court cards were.
