WOWO! i got my NTAAge today and it is so RICH in color, images and feel to it. I am very pleased with it an di think it may be the dark deck i need for now. i don't know yet but it gives me that feeling. I will be working with it this weekend to see how it goes, but so far so good.

I am falling in love already LOL!

PS: i got the original version instead of the re-done one, and it is true; the colors are vibrant, the images are more raw and alive than the other edition pics i've seen. thank you to whomever put thelink to the comparison!!

Congrats yaraluna

I recently acquired an edition from 1970. I am very happy with the colors too. It's a really attractive deck. I especially like the majors, though the minors are not without their charm.

When I first heard about it, I wasn't too sure if I would like it. Since it includes a game, I thought it might be a little on the shallow side. But after reading the books, I was pleasantly surprised to find the philosophy behind it is as solid as the art.

From what I have read, there is a limited edition that was printed in 1968, then a revised version in '69, and another in '70. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the only differences are in the packaging. I don't think the images ever changed, except for minor differences in print quality.

I have two sets of original 70's TNT for the Aquarian Age (3rd print and 4th print). I also have Word Of ONE tarot. I love both TNT and WOO. But print quality is rather different between TNT and WOO.

* TNT has more brilliant color than WOO
* TNT tone is 'low key', WOO tone is 'high key'
* TNT is 'green casted', WOO is 'magenta casted'
* WOO has sharp detail compared to TNT
* WOO's white is breeded or yellow casted
* card size is almost identical, but border size of WOO is larger than TNT
* some TNT major arcana, CMYK separation is wrong
* some WOO minor arcana cards are cropped badly
* TNT is printed in USA, WOO is printed in China
