Inky Green Thoth Deck

Post by Barb »

Does anyone have this deck and what on earth is the name of it. I would like to see any Thoths in shades of green!

I did a search on Thoth, but didn't see much on this question!

Thanks buntches!

Hi Barb.

I'm not sure where the phrase Inky Green Thoth Deck came from, so I can only guess, but I *do* have a guess...

In some Thoth decks, the printed colors are just off. The colors are not particularly vivid, and the cards seem to have a greyish-green cast to them. As I recall, this only affected decks from a certain time period. I have one of these decks. Used it for years before I saw a more recent printing, and I was blown away by how much brighter and prettier (if the term can be applied to Thoth) the newer cards were. My old deck seems drab and sickly now.

Hope this isn't missing the mark entirely!
