Are you sure you're thinking of the Meneghello Marsiglia Classica? All the people I know who have ever had this, have had laminated ones. You are the only person who says they have an unlaminated one! Here's a post with images of the deck I am thinking of...alec said:Interestingly, my Della Rocca and Marsiglia decks are just like the Bologna deck you enjoy so much - no lamination.

It's the Marsiglia Svizzera which is not laminated. Have never seen the Classica.

Hey Fanu, did you buy this deck in the end?
I think I've seen it all. Gumppenberg. Guppemberg. I started spelling him Grumppenberg. lol...Menegazzi spells it in 2 different ways on this page.

However, I've seen it spelt more often than not as Gumppenberg, on Menegazzi's site and on Tarotpedia. I assume this is correct? :-D

Yes, I bought this deck, in a trade with Moongypsy. It is laminated like the Meneghello Dotti.
Nice but not my favourite Meneghello deck.

Ah ok. I am not sure whether I prefer this deck or the Liguria-Piedmont tarot.
BTW you don't happen to know which is the correct spelling do you? I figure it's probably Gumppenberg?

I've always spelt it Gumppenberg because that's what I tend to see most. I think the spelling is unlikely - a double consonant like that in the middle. Double "L"maybe - as in Meneghello" - but a double "P" seems odd... But who knows.Ah ok. I am not sure whether I prefer this deck or the Liguria-Piedmont tarot.

Actually I believe it is spelled both ways on original cards.
It wasn't unusual for people to spell their own names in different ways (see this on Shakespeare: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spelling_of_Shakespeare's_name)
OnePotato has an original etched deck by this artist and pointed out the spelling variations here or perhaps another forum.

Ah thanks for the heads up. I was even calling him Grumppenberg, maybe confusing him with Grumpy Cat.

I have the Gumppenberg 1840... my first Meneghello deck purchase.
Will look at it later to check card stock...
ETA: cardstock is lightly varnished. Mine is 967/2000.
