Help with deck ID? Please

Yay :) I got my cards and they do seem to me to be a product of Switzerland! Clear images, fantastic card stock. Well to be fair they have been well used and loved and are so very soft! Four missing though (ah the love hate game of used decks) but I'm keeping them, far too soft and beautiful to give back. :)




Now I hate to ask this without having a picture for you but I don't think I can link pictures but anyway I can describe pretty well, I hope!

The best card for me to describe is the five of cups, it has an older person sleeping/lying in bed while other people are in the room holding and moving around with the cups, one of them is is shhing the other.

Gold backs with flower work, the front of the deck is bordered by a rope.

The Empress is seated on a throne, with angel wings behind her and she holds a shield in her hand and looks like she is wearing armour.

It looks old but I can't tell.....

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much.

Thank you!

Who needs to post pictures when Gregory is around! That's the one! Thank you so much. I will endeavor to post a picture next time though.

I brought the deck last night on Ebay but the seller didn't know what the deck was, now I do and am pleased as punch its on its way to me.

Above a book by another author on the deck...

What's the difference between the normal edition vs the premier edition.... Amazon... The mind boggles...

Aside from the price? Does one contain the book by the other author?

One says deck and book set.... The cheaper one and one says premier edition, description suggests a book, but it's more expensive.. wonder if the deck is in this premier edition?

One does have deck and one deck and book - but I'm not sure about those copies. As I recall, the "premier" one is just the deck in a bigger box - USG started to do that to cut down on theft in stores.

Seems to me it is easier to tell them apart on bookdepository. I'll go check ISBN on my set later - I have to go out. The book is good, and worth the extra.

Cassandra - if you are lucky your unknown one will be an older copy on much nicer stock and with less creamy colouring.
