Yeah!!! Its was such a strange find..the LWB and the box show a little ware but the deck its self feels brand new and has that sticky thing going on :) I'm so happy with this little deck its even smaller than the Hanson Roberts, it looks a little like the arcus arcanum and it was just 5 euro!!!!!!!

I think I emailed the wrong person on the Knapp-Hall. There's a thread on it at Aeclectic.net that mentions picture and reviews, but there's also a small mention of it in Christine Payne Tower's essay on tarot and a gentleman called Uri Raz has a listing of some Golden Dawn documents, one by Paul Foster Case. I heard but haven't bought Michael Dummat's/Ronald Decker's book History of the Occult Tarot, which supposedly discusses a little bit of Knapp Hall.

Well, I will send this deck to Meewah tomorrow... *LOL* It's small but in that way that... it looks so cute, and you feel you must have one! :D *LOL* The pips have some symbols and stuff that suggests some deep thought and work behind it, but apart from the stuff I got from Mark Filipas and (shall I say it?) the LWB, I can't figure out anything else at all... Probably, once my interest in readable RW clones is done, and once Thoth has rocked my life, I will go back as a bored elderly to marseilles and re-discover an interest in the history of tarot: that day I will definitely need a Knapp-Hall... :D *LOL* http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8249 http://www.private.org.il/GD/

Hey Pollux, you need to trade mark that last paragraph. :) You said it so cute and so true. If anyone asks just tell them I said you were wonderful.

Who could not use some fresh and free compliments on a gloomy lonely winter evening? ;) Thanks! :D *LOL* P.S. I just noticed some mistakes and mischoices in the first post... but I will claim they are a literary license - what matters is that you get the point! ;) *LOL*
