So I figure I better post this before my huge ass package comes in, there might have been more but I drag it out so long I don't remember. No prizes for which package was the biggest surprise.

Got my Golden Spike decks as well. Amazing work, hopefully I'll remember them for the 2015 UC awards. Jody did some amazing work not just with the decks but the presentation as well. The signed certificates, collector boxes, everything is top notch.

Also, after a mixup with the post office my Love Is a Smoke Christmas Edition cards finally made it home. The thread is here: http://unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6534" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Very cool HM. English Laundry is a great deck, especially for an advertising deck.

I got my Bicycle Goat Deco days ago. I'm surprised Breaking Bad was shipped before the Ghostbusters deck, which should be coming soon.

I don't know very much about Tarot decks but, I think I'd like to learn more about them.
I saw this one on Amazon the other day and thought I would get it because the artwork is lovely.

There are a lot of beautiful tarot decks. Here are the KS links to a few.

The second one you should be able to pick up on etsy.com and the first is about to start shipping.

Ah, yes. Another one that I should have backed but didn't because, at the time, I had no intention of collecting Tarot decks.
I actually have a signed print by one of the artists that I got through a different connection.
The original was done for a charity auction. This is my print the day I got it before it was framed.

I backed it because it was to be a Christmas gift for my sister. :oops: No worries. She's patient. I wish I had more $$ at the time for a second deck as the art is very good.

Over 50, I'll say 57. Whatever it is, that is a massive, massive haul. Anywhere in the universe eh? If I win I want my deck sent to Pluto. I don't live there obviously, but I want to see you try. ;)
