Kiama	22 Aug 2002
On my trip to Glastonbury yesterday, I went a bit mad with my money, and decided that I'd have one last Tarot shopping spree before all my money went to accomodation, bills etc, at Univeristy... I managed to find the Knapp-Hall Tarot for £4, aswell as the Papus Tarot for £6, and the Aquarian for £8. Then I foud: Roots of Asia Tarot New Palladini Smallest Tarot In The World (It really is tiny!) Love is in the Earth Crystal Tarot One that I've forgotten (Brain has gone squelchy this morning!) And, there, on th eshelf, justbefore I ran out of money, was the Kalevala, begging me to snap it up before the shop-keeper realised it was OOP and hoiked up their price... ;) So I did! I must say, I wish I could find a book to go with the deck because it is totally lost on me! Will the actual Kalevala help me at all? *Sigh* Just realised I've broken my own record: 18 decks in 2 weeks. Kiama

Hey, Kiama, the Knapp-Hall is hard to find, that was a good buy. -- Lee

Well, my dear, there is a book available to go with the Kalevala. I didn't know that deck and book are sold seperately because I got them in a set. How is the Treasures of the Earth deck? I paln to add another Gem deck to my collection so I am pretty curious to hear about that one.

Mh... Great finds, and great prices! I would not mind a Papus and Knapp Hall for those prices as well... I am speechless. I think I must move to UK. Prepare my bed.

*bows to the tarotholic queen* Wow! That's a lot of decks, Kiama. But it sounds like you got some wonderful finds. I'm so jealous. :) Kes

It is possible that the book may be available separately. The set and the book have different ISBN numbers. The book is 0-88079-186-1 The set is 0-88079-187-X I ran a search on Amazon, and found the set, but not the book by itself. It was selling for $35.00 USD, so I think you got a good buy. I only paid $15.00 USD for my set, so I feel lucky too.

Kiama - Congratulations on your great finds! I am so thrilled for you :D :TWHEE Starfish

Lee: Thank for telling me about the Knapp-Hall. There were about 6 copies there though, so maybe I shoudl've gotten more!!! Just remembered the other deck I got: Tarot of the Spirit. Oh, and if any of yo go to Glastonbury, be prepared to buy multiple copies of the Glastonbury Tarot, which sells there in nearly every single shop you go to, for a mee £9.99. And I bought my copy for £20! Grrrrrr.... Kiama
