Re: Brüt Tarot by UUSI now live on Kickstarter
I wonder if both tarot uncuts will have the same special artwork? Either way I think I'll just go for the picture one.

Drats. It's a full package, two uncuts and a tarot deck. I don't want a pip only uncut.

Re: Brüt Tarot by UUSI now live on Kickstarter
Notice that the One of Clubs is used as a "primary card" with their logo, like in traditional European decks. No embellishments to the One (Ace) of Spades at all, which is a tradition created by American printers.Eoghann wrote:Drats. It's a full package, two uncuts and a tarot deck.

Very nice! I have seen decks from the mid-1800's that use the Jack of Clubs or even 4 of Clubs - although I have to admit that I have no idea exactly why that is.
Maybe Dazz can comment, or Dan - any ideas where the tradition shifted or who started that movement to the AoS as the "primary" identification card? I have clues, but not enough to say anything concrete.
I know a few Dondorf decks produced as late as 1933 (when they crashed and burned) had it on the 4 of Clubs, which I personally find curious, because the Ace (of One) of Clubs wasn't overly flowered up as noted in the reference cited, but had the manufacturer's name under the single pip.

Go figure that it was the British government that got it started. It does makes sense that I've heard it came from USPCC, which I knew was wrong, after all we were originally a colony.PrincessTrouble wrote:Mike, there is some information on that at this topic
I haven't kept up my reading here lately, or I would have already known, eh?

I also find it interesting they used the AoC for their "primary card". I also like they used "1" as the value of the Ace. That is traditional. Yes, the JoC was the traditional "primary card". It was the card for the artist. I think it's the most less-valued court card in the deck at that time. Perfect for an artist's signature card. C.

I read that the AoS became the primary card because you had to got to the tax office and purchase the AoS card. I heard someone got hanged for making fake AoS. Back then the BackofCard was white.

Re: Brüt Tarot by UUSI now live on Kickstarter
I got my gilded copper poker deck. It was hard as a brick. Any tips on breaking apart the cards? I recall something of letting them settle for a couple of weeks before using.

Re: Brüt Tarot by UUSI now live on Kickstarter
What I do (as originally suggested by Mike) is let them sit for a couple weeks and then slightly flex the deck back and forth to break them apart. It takes a bit of a force, but just enough to flex it slightly. From there you can separate the remaining cards. I've done this for all of my Uusi gilded decks.Bikefanatic wrote:I got my gilded copper poker deck. It was hard as a brick. Any tips on breaking apart the cards?

Maybe next Monday-Wednesday I'll attempt to use them.

I got my copper gilded deck too (#4/50) and am letting it sit for a while.

Re: Brüt Tarot by UUSI now live on Kickstarter
I'm not really slightly disappointed but even after 2 weeks of having the deck, the gilding was peeling away. This the only deck to do so out of the many older decks I have.
