That explains why I didn´t know. Hate that style. I obviously blocked it out of my vocabulary so as not to have to deal with it.

Ah, but that doesn't make it go away ...Le Fanu said:
Kunati version of Touchstone? Anyone got a de-enable for that?
Dusk Till Dawn
Well thank you so much! I thought about this, and Yes I should wait this out. It's better to have 78 cards, but it's hard to wait...Chronata said:

Ship of Fools.....
It looks in scans as if it will be old-fashioned and papery and perhaps become more well-loved and attractive with use. No chance. It's made of cheesy shiny modern card. I hated it as soon as I opened the box. I traded it. Spare yourself the disappointment.
Soprafino.....
Yes, very nice, but the cards are a bit of a strange size and when you lay the cards out they look like old cigarette cards, and some people may not like the pointy corners. I actually didn't mind either of these things (although a deck like this ought to be a bit bigger really), but still never used it and never thought it was as amaaaazing as I thought it would be. And the ribbon on the cover soon looked really tatty and frayed right down. I traded it.

Thank you all for de-enabling on the Ship of Fools!

Im currently de-anabling myself on this one by thinking OK OK, let´s be honest, Im going to buy it one day so let us not deceive ourselves and - instead - embark upon honest, temporary de-enabling...
This is going to be around for years. There´s plenty of time to get it. Now is the worst time to buy it while everyone is gushing and making a big show of how lovely the Kunati is but they ARE glad they bought the Ltd Edition first (lest you forget)....
Be sensible; take it on its own terms.
I have a big reservation about this type of deck, which I don´t know whether you share. I have problems with these images I know well. Part of the Western canon of Art etc. Turn over a card and there´s Katherine Howard... "O and that´s a Caravaggio on the death card"... " and there´s Anne of Cleves".
I can´t concentrate on a "good" reading when I know the provenance of these images... Too familiar. And "bent" to Tarot card meanings...

I never thought of that, very good point. A little late for me, unfortunately...Le Fanu said:

Actually, I'm having that problem with the Golden Tarot, too. There are just enough familiar faces...

Correct me if Im wrong but isn´t your avatar taken from the exact deck (Mitelli 1664?) which you asked to be de-enabled from last week?
