Title: [TXT] Eleventh Pier
Post by: Magasaki on February 19, 2015, 05:06:14 AM
Fes put me onto this deck recently and after spending some time with it I am pretty much in love. Sure, the cards don't handle well and are printed on unlaminated card stock, but the overall 'feel' of the artwork is great. For a great deal of us Brits who spent our childhood summers in sleepy coastal towns climbing harbour walls and riding funfairs on the pier this deck is full of great memories. I'm not sure exactly what it is about it but the feeling of nostalgia is captured fantastically.

I have posted some images and further information and opinions on my site here > http://www.magasaki.com/#!eleventh-pier/c5ba

I'm pretty interested in the design, myself.  Don't forget to post it in the 2015 releases (unless it's an older deck, of course).

Yeah it's a 2014 deck Don. I was just late to the party.

Thanks Fes, it's coming on now. I have a few interesting articles coming up hopefully.
