Thinbuddha,I am not so much the fan of warts and all. Part of the value of the TdP is not so much the muddy confusion we have left, but the clear idea the original artists had, but which no-longer survives. At one time there must have been scores of decks whose lines were crisp and whose stenciling was well executed. That is the image, that actually illustrates the story at hand. That is the image that we really need.
I would be interested in a copy of the deck as it now exists, muddy colouration and other warts and all. But I would be much more interested in a clean production that really told the story as it was actually meant to be told.
Either way I'll be looking forward to the success of your project.
