Return to Mulder City

Found! Not Lost

When Keenan passed, we set aside all inventory bearing his name - sadness all around. Among these were several dozen board boxes from the City Series 2, labeled Milton. For over 16 years, they remained untouched, until we recognized they deserved a better home. They belonged among those who cherished Keenan’s spirit - those who shared laughter and admiration alongside him.

In 2017, we began distributing these decks, each accompanied by a personal note, to Keenan’s friends. As we reached the 40th deck, a surprising discovery was made - a Richard Mulder deck had been sent out, signaling a mix-up. Upon inspection, we found that beneath the initial 40 Keenan decks lay 200 Richard Mulder decks from the same series. Astonished, we held onto these treasures for another seven years.

Now, as we celebrate #30ChocolateYears , the moment feels right to share these vintage Richard Mulder decks with the world. This release features new old stock, only 200 available, each screen printed with art by Evan Hecox 🍫

Mulder City NOS decks drop Wednesday, October 30th, at 9am PST ⌚️ head to Crailtap.com to get notified 📲
