A deck of officially licensed, collectable playing cards commemorating comedy film & TV legends The Three Stooges® printed in the USA.
This post is for backers only. Please visit Kickstarter.com and log in to read.
Quick update for all backers. I received the official notification from the US Playing Card Company that The Three Stooges playing cards have officially been shipped out from the manufacturing facility in Erlanger, KY via FedEx Freight. This means that in about a week I should be receiving all the decks and I can begin to pack and ship out orders to all of you!
Similar to BackerKit, I'll be sending out Kickstarter Reward Surveys today that you will need to complete ASAP. All it will be asking is for your Name & Address. Without this information, I won't be able to send you your Three Stooges playing cards.
Have a great weekend,

Hi Everyone,
Truly hope everyone doing well. Wanted to share with you some information I received from the US Playing Card Company. It seems that the cards have been in line to get printed for a couple weeks now and they should be shipping out from the factory sometime during the 3rd week of July.
Typically this will take 1 week to arrive Los Angeles, at which point I'll have had all the orders prepped to streamline shipping to you.
You'll receive an email from me just prior to shipping so that you may update your address if you need to.
Lastly, while I know you're a fan of The Three Stooges and playing cards, this one is for the puzzle lovers out there. I teamed up with my friend David Kwong (magician & New York Times crossword writer), puzzle designer Dave Shukan and illustrator Billy French to create a unique deck of puzzle playing cards we're calling ENIGMAS. It's a regular deck of playing cards, however there are secret codes, messages hidden in the deck along with 4 unique puzzles that if solved, will unlock a multilayered 8-step puzzle!
As always, thank you for your support. Stay safe. Be back again soon with more updates when ready to ship!

Hi Three Stooges Backers,
This is a quick update to inform you that the Three Stooges playing cards contract with the USPCC has been signed and received which means these decks are officially going to print!
The fine folks at USPCC have been working overtime to catch up with all the projects that were on hold due to the COVID-19 shut down. Along with the contract I received and approved the digital proofs for the deck.
I've also made the payment to USPCC which means everything is a GO! I'm hoping within the next couple weeks to hear that they have been printed which means the last step is to assemble the decks and ship out.
Thank you all for your patience & your support. I hope you're all staying safe, happy and healthy.
Best,
//Chris
Hi Everyone,
I hope you're all doing well, staying safe, healthy and happy. Just a quick update, the USPCC is back up and running officially, however because of their shutdown there is a backlog of decks they have to complete before they can get to the Stooges deck.
Unfortunately I don't have an exact timeline to report, but I anticipate that we are at least 4 weeks behind on being printed as a result of the shut down.
I'll make sure to update you all on the status as soon as I know more information. If you have any questions, always feel free to message me directly.
Thank you again for your support, stay well.
