Thanks Paige!
I'll post a couple of pics here as well so people can see what it's all about. Tarot de Marseille style artwork ....

The design is cool, though I wonder why the Queen of Hearts is titled in French and the rest are in English.
I only wish the creator wasn't printing with Cartamundi. Their quality tends to be more miss than hit.

Don - Cartamundi has come quite ahead on the finish. I am not sure if you have seen some of their recent cardistry decks...

Thanks Don, good question about the QoH. The pic is of a prototype print, and I plan to change the text: Queen of Hearts at the bottom, and Coeur de Femme at the top. (I mention this in the project description.)
Regarding Cartamundi, I know they are a big company with various manufacturing sites. The plan is for these cards to be printed at Turnhout in Belgium.

For some reason I don't seem to be able to start a new topic, so I will have to post here instead. Well I suppose this is a continuation of the topic of this thread a few years later.
My new Kickstarter project is for a second edition of the Pike and Clover cards (discussed above) together with an extended version called Rare Triumphs, with added knights and trump suit to make up a 78 card tarot deck.

My apologies - there was a glitch, but it's since been fixed.
