Hi Coredil,
That was what I noticed too about my two decks - the one I've had for over 20 years has two cards with Stuart Kaplans book on it and the other advertises other US Games decks. The card stock of this deck is very hard to shuffle and sticks together.
The second 1JJ Swiss is better quality card stock but still not laminated but this deck shuffles like a dream, no where does it mention either Stuart Kaplan or US Games just two cards for Waddingtons. I know now that this is the older of my two decks but both the colouring and card quality are much nicer.
I'm finding I like the slightly different tones of the Waddingtons version much better, it seems just a touch darker than the Kaplan version.
