These are The CHARLES BUKOWSKI Playing Cards, a tribute to Buk based on his poetry and his book 'Love is a Dog From Hell'.
This is a special MADISON ONE Entry, limited to only 52 decks, never to be reprinted, first-come-first-served.
This powerful deck uses artwork created by Madison inspired by 'Love is a Dog From Hell' - the book cover, the book and Buk himself. This deck is fully marked with a small speed-reading dealers marking system hidden in the eyes of the 'dogs' on the bottom left and top right.
The deck takes on the color of the book cover throughout, with the only white / negative space to appear on the Bluebird and the signature. Bukowski can be found as the King of Clubs in this deck, hosting a hidden revelation of the Ace of Hearts, which in this deck is the Power Ace and features a Bluebird. In place of the Jokers you will find a duplicate Ace of Hearts, which also serves as a Gaff card, featuring a hidden King of Clubs on the chest of the Bluebird. A duplicate Buk ( King of Clubs ) is also in this deck, alongside a photo of Bukowski and a card with one of his poems 'Roll the Dice.' There is also a secret hidden revelation of the King of Clubs inside the tuck box.
Watch the videos below to see the deck up close and in action and to also learn the marking system.

Let customers speak for us
from 467 reviewsI don’t think I can overstate how much I love this design! Having a arrcurate depiction of a blackjack table on the cards, especially set upon a green background perfectly matching a card tables felt, it’s simply brilliant. The attention to the smallest of details shows the care this deck was designed with. Not only that, but the marking system is clever, intuitive, and most importantly, practical.
Daniel's recent deals on bricks & gross have been an absolute godsend. Unbeatable prices meant I just had to stock up multiple times. I think I now have enough decks to last the rest of my life & I'm not even kidding. Excellent customer service & I got a whole bunch of freebies including some of Daniel's wonderful designer decks.
Just Brilliant,
So much has gone into the design and creation of this very clever tool, plus another amazing
in depth tutorial by Daniel.
One of the best card i own from the master Daniel Madison
I owe Madison an apology. A few years ago I was one of a few vocal in complaining about decks not received blah blah. I was impatient and entitled and not as understanding as I should have been about the challenges a man can go through. Everything turned up in the end. No harm done. Recently I've returned and every deck I've purchased has been a 10/10. Fearless is gorgeous and features a built in shiner that is genius (worth noting it does require decent eye sight and a bit of practice). I'll be picking up a few more when I place my next order (customer service and shipping was also great).
Every deck Daniel has created is exceptional. Bravo!
Excellent production over an hour starts with an intro followed by a full tutorial excellent teacher love Mr Madison insight and methods too I have a great collection of his work which I always thoroughly enjoy.
The Fearless deck is made with great intention. Beautiful gold foil serves as a shiner as well. Highly recommend.
Fantastic cards, thank you for the free gift!
Excellent cards as you’d expect from Madison, delivery was fast. Loving the deals that are on at the moment
A geat detailed video explanation on how to use this very usefull tool.
Brilliant deck, cheap but are a perfect deck. As Larry Jennings said to me once, "Tally-Ho is the way to go!"
Another great Acolyte Deck from Team Madison. Handles beautifully and great color.
Absolutely smashed this order. Went above and beyond, I really couldn't have asked for more and expectations were still superseded.
Beautiful looking cards! With a bunch of great extras. The Bukowski King is the best. A must for any Bukowski fan.
Thanks, Joshua! It's a stunning deck, isn't it? So glad you appreciated the little details!

So glad you love them, Paul. This has become one of Daniel's favourite decks, too!
