Decrepit decks
My deck is about 40 years old (Thoth). Soooo extensivly used. Given away used for ... returned to me. Been travelling, on camping trips, carted around in a back pack and motocycle panniers. Did years at a market stall. Also slack, often did readings without cloth, on the ground and all sorts of stuff. Never rubbed them on the table or sand paper or ....? ( never thought of that .... thats the sort of thing we used to do to new motorcycle jackets).
They held up pretty good, some edges a bit fluffy, images faded, bits missing.
I have seen decks that got wet, that kids got into and frisbeed around the garden etc ... damage is a different look to genuine years long wear and tear from reading.
NOW ... who wants to bid on my deck! (Exotic ancient Tarot, worn from the usage of time and wizard's hands .... once owned by a witch and someone who knew someone who knew Crowley ! ) Make an offer!
