Sparkz :)  Hey awesome website you have!

Just dropping in to say thanks to everyone for the feedback and support during the campaign.  It was a long 35 days and isn't over yet but really great to see names I know well.  Thanks for the great feedback and backing, I truly appreciate it.  Will have a fair bit to sort over the next couple of weeks but glad to be into the production side of things.  Have a real appreciation for the huge amount of work involved in a campaign.  You guys have been awesome from day one.  A very big thanks.

I love these just as much as I thought I would.

Has anyone besides me noticed that the backs are one way? Was that on purpose I wonder?

It's kind of subtle but easy to see once you've noticed. Hmm...

Rick, I'm still kicking myself for missing out on your deck.  You will keep us informed when it goes on sale, right?  :))

Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.

I just got a Double. Interesting to compare the two sets of faces. The First Edition definitely pops more than the Grail. Maybe next time print one version with a smooth finish? Weren't the historic decks smooth?

Got my Origins a few days ago... They handle like a dream (not surprising), and the tuck boxes are elegant and beautiful... A bit reminiscent of the Monarchs, IMO, but not similar enough to be a bad thing...

As bamabenz mentioned, the FirstEd deck actually looks better than the Grail Edition to me (surprising for me), though i really like the pearlescent stock used for the Grail Edition tuck boxes! Haven't seen anything like it elsewhere!

Hey thanks guys.  I'll work something out for you Don, thanks for your early advice.

True Bama, I guess you could call the historic decks smooth.  Pretty sure they didn't have an air cushion magic finish for sure ;)    Thanks Aldazar, yes the pearl stock was a bit of an unknown with the emboss, but in the end it pressed better than the midnight blue did.  Pretty happy with the end result.
