Looking at the Roman Numerals on the Cards, i found some "misprints". I wonder if these "misprints" are also on the oldest version of the RWS and of course i wonder: " are these misprints made on purpose? "
"Real misprints":
5 of Cups: The V has no Roof
8 of Cups: The Line above the V is not complete
10 of Cups: The X:No Roof/ No Bottom
5 of Wands: The V has no Roof
9 of Swords: The X has no Roof
Other Strange Prints/ appearances:
The 5 of Pentacles has a (very long) Roof-Line and a Bottom Line which connects the two towers in the Window.
The 5 of Swords is printed as the Normal Roman Numeral (As the Hierofant)
It appears that all the 5's are printed differently on the Minor Arcana. This might well connect the fives with Geburah, the Sefirot of Strife.
The 3 of Pentacles has also a long Roof-Line and Bottem Line integrated in the lines of the Vesica Pisces.
If someone has different RWS Sets, please is it possible, to look, if above mentioned prints are the same on the older decks?
Are there suggestions why these cards are misprinted?
