The Inglewood Hunting Deck is a medieval-style, animal-suited poker deck, designed by Ian Cumpstey, and printed by Cartamundi on linen finish card stock. It was inspired by two historical poker decks with hunting themed suits: "the Ambras Hunting Deck (Ambraser Hofjagdspiel, ca. 1440: hawks, hounds, lures, and herons) and the Stuttgart Deck (Stuttgarter Kartenspiel, ca. 1430: hawks, hounds, deer, and ducks)". In the Inglewood Hunting Deck the animal suits are:
- Hawks: which are depicted on a sky blue background for the number cards or the courts have navy blue clothing.
- Hounds: have a maroon & green background or courts with scarlet clothing.
- Deer: have a lilac background or courts with turquoise clothing.
- Pheasants: have a yellow-orange background or courts with maroon clothing.
On the 1-9 cards the number of animals depicted is the value of the card, while all the 10s are illustrated with banners (as was common for medieval hunting decks). The court cards depict one-way full body portraits of medieval figures with the animal suit somewhere in the background. Each card has a numerical index (1-9, X, J, Q, or K).
The Second Edition has a different card back and tuck box from the First Edition but the card faces are the same.
