Yes, we have 7 deliveries in the US, with more expected on Monday, but there are still some parcels with OSM.

100%. I am a big proponent on using and opening all of my decks. I don't ever buy decks to resell, and love the artwork so much where I just don't like hiding it away in an unopened box -- especially when artists worked incredibly hard to make them. I greatly appreciate you opening up that sale to us, and being lucky to get a purchase in to enjoy this gorgeous card deck!

Oh sure, the artist, the cards - they get all the glory.

And tucks, they get their love too…

But what about those poor unsung bastards sealing the cello? Their only wish to protect the tucks and cards from the ravages of the environment. Sure, they get joy when we pull that tab, experiencing that new deck smell that they so furiously preserved for us - but their true joy, their hope beyond hope, is for that opening to be in a far flung future - testing the very limits of the protective film that is their trade.

Yes, well written, Gandalf. Nonetheless, I opened up the treasury deck as soon as I received it and, om nom nom, that was delicious.

Brilliant work. Love, love, love it. A proud addition to my collection. Oh, and the new-card-smell of this deck! Mmmmm....

All that said... the smiling Joseph Stalin is nonetheless simultaneously hilarious and disturbing. If you didn't know anything about him and just saw that image, you'd swear he looks like a truly amiable guy, friendly and benevolent. <shudder>.

Russian name: "Карты Пацана", sort of means "boys' cards" but "пацан" apparently also means "gang member"

I see people on other corners of the internet calling the series "Lad's Word" in English
