Greetings!
I have just acquired a '68 Tarot Productions Albano Waite (New Color Deluxe) (absolutely adore it already!) and I immediately noticed a variation in the tone of the cream on the card reverse. Some are white and others are quite a creamy off-white.
Once ordered I could see that the major arcana and all of the wands along with the knight, queen and king of cups were all white; ace to page of cups and all of the swords and pentacles are off-white...
It's bizarre. They don't seem stained. I assume they must've been cut from a different sheet of card? Also the notches on the sides of the deck are on every side (rather than just two - as with my University Books RWS deck).
Is this a common occurrence?

I've attached pictures of the cards and the box.

Indeed - so does mine.Those raised spots on the edges of the cards are normal for the vintage versions; they all have them, at least the ones I've seen.
