6 Haunted Days
Does anyone else have these? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0738713066/ref=nosim/aeclectic/
They came out last month, but I'm sure earlier in Europe. I just got them in the mail and they are curious, kinda creepy, very antique looking images!
The art/style looks like it was drawn in the teens, '20's. Does anyone know, were these cards released like decades ago, then LS is not republishing them? They sure look it! There is no artist name anywhere on the box or LWB. It's gotten me very curious! In a way though it also adds to the charm and strangeness of the deck.
They're playing card sized, with a very PC style back in swirly red. The borders surrounding the image are black. The images themselves....just very old looking and some are just weird! Hard to pin down, but they certainly give off a creepyish vibe. I love it!
There are 52 cards and they have the image with a card title on top.
The titles are:
Doctor
Despair (has a guy in 19th cen. garb holding a gun to his head!!)
Room
Waiting
Love
Lord
Money
Sighs
Child
Conversation
Scholar
Hope
Faithfulness
Constancy
Melancholy
Lover
Misfortune
Letter
Friend
Prison
Sorrow
Enemy
Reunion
Thief
Foe
Old Woman
Gift
Falseness
Widower
Soldier
Fortune
House
Surprise
Cheerfulness
Service
Frivolity
Messenger
Wife
Servant
Malady
Merchant
Death
Consolation
Pleasure-seekers
Thought
Wedding
Joyfulness
Haughtiness
Sweetheart
Young woman
And each title has a relevant image/scene. There appears to no order they should be in...no numbers etc.
They were cheap, and look quite interesting in an obscure way. Anyone else have a set?
