Dan and Dave tease. This is called Sons of Liberty, November 6th.
Part of my Collection updated infrequently but occasionally, when I remember. (I haven't in months.)

Looks like some faux-aging to me, which is a big strike against it right out of the gate. I thought that trend died out like three years ago?

It's possible they just messed with the color on the photo but I agree with you. It does look like they've used a cream color to simulate age. A side from the latest Hollingworth deck, I'm not too keen on much coming out of the Bucks. I hope this changes soon and it may just be a mood for me, I don't know which. I'm right there with you on this image though it may change as I see more.

It might be faux aging or it might simply be a cream color.  Faux aging has been heavily overused but is still all too common, unfortunately.  Cream or ivory or something similar is cool, but the aging look is so tired.
