In my pictures the gilding on the top of the deck that you see once the tuck is open is how it should look, it's flawless on the top side - the longer sides are where it's got that scratchmark-ish area. It's also right under my lamp, it doesn't show up as much in regular light :D

i love copper, so you know im down. the white of the tuck also has a very thin copper layer printed on it to give it an ivory look. i guess it doesn't show in the pictures but is supposed to be really nice.

I noticed the different jokers. And Gio said in his website that there's a story behind the jokers as well. Does anyone know what's the story and if you can share it as well for those of us who aren't Patreons?

@Eric Lee - for now, Egoism story is still a mystery. I've shared few hints and descriptions, but not really an explanation. On purpose, of course, I want to inspire a little imagination ;-)

Death, Hanged Man?, Strength, High Priestess? Yes :mrgreen:

For Egoism Tarot, it's planned, but I am a bit swamped right now. Let's say it's a long term project, maybe end of 2022 or 2023.

Let's see if I can name these 4 jokers from Egoism Ivory now that we know they are part of a tarot deck

Left- Emperor . Right - I would guess the Page/Knight of Swords?

I must admit, if I weren't part of Gio's Patreon I would skip the EEs due to price :shock: Patrons were able to get these for around $60

Tuck texture looks phenomenal :drool: wow!

I'm happy I got Egoism with last year's patreon rewards, but the courts, although very nice, don't sing enough to me for a purchase.

One of my 2022 2nd Quarter Patron rewards came. I actually added this year a second patron account (my only group for which I am using two patron accounts) because I just kept getting extra decks and decided I was not helping myself any and it would just be better to get a double reward. Because I had an EB reward, it worked out to be cheaper to back it with two different Patron accounts (because i am cheap and not sure how long I can afford to do double rewards). Anyway, this deck does look sweet.

Are the jokers different from the others? If yes, please do share the Joker pics when you can.

Yes, Jokers are completely different characters compared to Egoism Rust/Peacock.
You can see a lot of pics (jokers included) on the product page > https://www.thirdwayindustries.com/prod ... ism-ivory/

@hsbc - awesome pics!

So when I got up I noticed the tape on the bottom had come unstuck :lol: Thankfully I just pressed it back together, I'll keep it standing up for a little while :ugthink: I guess the paper doesn't play nice with the adhesive?
