The Gallery book is only images, with item numbers. Organized into tabbed thematic sections.
It only lists the title of the decks (in several languages).
Personally, I would've loved to see information on who all the artists are, but considering that the main function of the book is use by sellers to give people an idea of what each deck looks like, it's sufficient for its purpose.
Though the color accuracy was WAY off in my copy for the Mona Lisa Tarot...sort of a green-brown cast to all the images on that page.
I'd have to compare, but the color seemed faded for a lot of them. May have just been the printing method.
In general it's a lovely book though.
The pages that depict gilded decks have, as I think someone already mentioned, an actual card from the deck pasted in the book to illustrate how the gold would look in the actual deck. These I've noticed can be completely random samples from the deck. However, the book as a whole shows the same set of cards from each deck...if someone were interested in comparing the specific cards, this would be an interesting study in and of itself.
