As of today, I believe US Games has declared that the Rider-Waite images are set to unarguably expire in 2021, the required number of UK years after Pixie, the youngest documented person associated with its creation, died. Rather than wrangle the terms of the copyright, I'm curious as to what you think will happen with only seven years left to go, by both the company and artists.
Do you expect US Games to release a proliferation of RWS variants in the next seven years in order to receive as much money from new deck material as possible?
Could we predict an explosion of decks from artists, each with differently coloured or differently sketched versions of the images? Could 2021 and the few years following be The Attack of the Clones?
And do you have a favourite way RWS has not yet been presented that you'd like to see?
