I propose we move this articel back to "The United State Playing Card Company" because that is the official name of the company (with the "the"). 68.35.52.95 19:56, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Aviator Article
Someone should create an Aviator article as it is one of the most cost effective playing card decks out there, with high quality and anti-cheating measures (white border and plain design). 70.111.224.85 15:48, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
Yeah I was wondering what each of the brands were used for, perhaps the article should have a description of each brand? Thanks! Xaios 14:15, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Iraq's Most Wanted
Didn't this company also print the Iraq's 55 Most Wanted decks? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.42.159.11 (talk • contribs) 18:19, February 26, 2006 (UTC)

- An entrepreneur, who may have been organized as the Liberty Playing Card Company, ordered the cards from the U.S. Playing Card Co., which printed them. Thus, the U.S. Playing Card Co. printed but did not distribute the cards. You may recall that there was a controversy because the distributor did not have his own design for the jokers with which the deck was printed. They were jokers of the Hoyle design, which is a trademark of the U.S. Playing Card Co. Thus, the distributor needed a license from the U.S. Playing Card Co. to distribute the cards. I believe that this issue came up at the time of the second printing, perhaps because the U.S. Playing Card Co. did the first printing without knowing that the cards would be resold. If you visit the U.S. Playing Card Co. web site, you will see that anyone can order a special edition deck of cards. The only wrinkle is that you have to order in lots of 10,000 decks. These were not, apparently, the cards actually distributed to the military personnel looking for the persons identified on the cards. Those were a limited edition handed out by the Pentagon.
