Bohemian Gothic Tarot: beautiful and out-of-print deck

Bohemian Gothic Tarot: beautiful and out-of-print deck published on 1 Comment on Bohemian Gothic Tarot: beautiful and out-of-print deck

So I was browsing around Aeclectic Tarot, idly looking through decks by theme, and of course I checked out the Vampire grouping. Among these I found not strictly a vampiric deck, but a dark and moody one in general, the Bohemian Gothic from Magic Realist Press. The deep, cool blues and jewel-like brights, the profusion of skulls and the disturbingly staring eyes, all in the style of Victorian lithographs, are heavily influenced by Gothic and Romantic tropes. Admire many of the cards at the deck’s own Web site. Then weep because it’s out of print and commanding nearly $400.00 on Amazon.com. Dammit…and I really liked that deck!

Wow. That is both beautiful and disturbing. I’m trying to see if there might be a more affordable alternative Ebay-side, but it is REALLY slow for no real reason right now. I’ll let you know if I find anything.

Note: Perhaps no chat tonite due to having to fix Jesi’s corset for the wedding. I will keep you posted.
