hi,
i am a lover of RWS (yellow box), sometimes i try to find another deck for fun, but never manage to find one i like more that this traditional favourite. i have owned the pocket, mini and tiny editions of this deck, never anything larger.
for the pocket edition, there seems to be one printed in 1991 and one printed in 1993.
i`m not sure which i have (LWB no longer with me), but lately i have become aware of such matters as cardstock and stickiness, and notice that the exactly same cards a friend has have thinner card stock than mine, and are perhaps less `sticky` (though being someone elses deck i`ve never handled them so cannot be sure).
checking the boxes, the ISBN`s are the same. the only thing i can see is that mine has `Printed in China` on the box, above the US Games address, and her`s has `Made in China` with a serial number underneath, before the US Games address. i guess these are different printings?
does anyone know the Pocket edition so well that they can tell me if `Made in China` cards will be less `sticky` than `Printed in China` cards?
i don`t want to invest in new cards if they will have the same, or worse stickiness than those i already have.
thanks a lot for any help and advice you can give.
PS is there anyone else out there who prefers Pocket size over the regular size, not just for travel, but in general ??
