Re: [brownsl] My Collection
So much for not collecting tarot decks.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
Wow. This collection is astounding. Gotta question: I rarely see these (below). Has anyone seen the rest of this deck? Know if there are any photos/scans of these cards anywhere? -
Update: I see them now. They're on pinterest.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
Wow you got hit hard by the Tarot bug!!! UUSI and KeyMaster also started me dabbling in the tarot space, but nothing like this.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
I am glad brownsl is posting some of his collection. Now I finally have someone posting that is crazier than me! I love the Tarot collection too. Visconte Matdrone is one of my favorites, and is still available in an ungilded version. It really is stunning and everyone should add it to their collection as a nice historical reproduction example.
Aceoffive, I am shocked you don't have that deck. I don't know if it comes in other sets, but mine is from the Eastern Orient Express Deck set, which it looks like that photo came from. You should be able to find it. I think there are a few versions though. My set came courtesy of Roop, who only asked me to post photos, so it is out here in the forums somewhere. I like to think of it as my 1920's version of the VSOE! My set also came with a cool card explaining that they were taking publicity photos on that trip!
A quick search and here is the link to my photos and others on this deck: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=15127&p=170488&hili ... nt#p170488

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
I did! I have not been getting as many as in the past but still support some KS projects. UUSI and KeyMaster are some of my favorites! Also, I really like Dominic Murphy's decks and the artwork on Baba Studios decks is phenomenal. And as Bradius mentions below Visconti Modrone is an awesome deck. In fact, I think Bradius mentioning that deck in a post of his really kicked off my search for cool tarot decks!

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
Bradius’ flagrant display of Visconti was coincidentally right around the time my tarot collection went from two decks to too many decks…. I’m sure its just a coincidence…

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
lol, glad I am not the only one with this problem. When trading decks with someone I have to qualify the deal on the condition I can find the decks first.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
My first job was at a grocery store and one job was unloading the trucks, which they always stuck the new guy with - searching for cards around here is a lot like that, with the addition of having to repack the truck when I find what I’m looking for.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
I have been slowly organizing my decks into BCW 930 Card Storage Boxes. I am mostly complete but still need to organize the decks/boxes that do not fit into the storage boxes. That helps when searching for something but I still have over 500 of the storage boxes to label better than a post-it note and make them easily accessible.
I have been thinking of getting a Lista cabinet or two. They are very nice and can store lots and lots of decks but they are not cheap.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
Couldn’t remember who the culprit was that flashed the Phantasmagoric tarot… You have done me great service

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
Received my UUSI Eros 3rd edition decks. I have 2 of each edition now. This deck is one of my favorite tarot decks.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
My Golden Eagle rewards. I absolutely love Albert's decks but the half brick box included was disappointing, cheap and very dinged up. I tossed it in the trash.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
I am a bit confused as I received the below items from the King Arthur v2 Excalibur campaign recently, I thought I had already received my rewards back in May. I need to check.

Re: [brownsl] My Collection
It has been several weeks since I have opened any packages and am getting caught up today. Not sure what is going on with the King Arthur v2 rewards.
