About 52 Plus Joker
Founded in 1985.
We facilitate the collection and trading of antique, vintage and modern collectible playing cards & other related ephemera.
Today, collectible playing cards are found everywhere including online, in auction houses, at antique shows, flea markets, garage sales, in grandma’s attic, and most importantly, by exchanging decks through a premier collector club such as 52 Plus Joker.
In 2018, 52 Plus Joker officially merged with the Chicago Playing Card Collectors club making us the largest playing card collector’s association in the world.
