Yep - they are

I got some photoglossy paper and printed out an Ironwing and because it's photoglossy I haven't laminated at all. I got my deck from someone else who had written titles at the bottom of the majors and "courts". My newly printed deck has no borders. I know I used an inkjet but I shall just have to be incredibly careful not to drool, spit, choke or cry on the cards...... Thankfully the deck has very little colour and so it was not costly to print. I could always do it again if need be.

I did think if getting a set of the majors to replace my written-on ones but I've grown attached to them and hardly notice the writing any more.

Reading with the deck is a joy - there is so much there, even in the minors. To my surprise I find the minors easier to read than fully scenic cards; I wasn't expecting this. I thought it was going to be really hard to read with.

This isn't like studying the deck at all. I just enjoy spending my time with it. I find I give thanks for having come across it in the first place. It was on a trade train and Thorhammer offered me a reading with the deck of my choice. I chose the Ironwing. The reading so impressed me that I spent a feverish time locating and buying a copy. Oh the anxiety between asking if the seller would sell and her agreement, and then the wanting to pay as quickly as possible in case she changed her mind .....
