Well... The Blue Bird just arrived
and I have been looking these cards over quite a bit. (Please see what I copied below for info on release date fm Lynn RA at US Games).
They are beautiful and quite charming too.
They are 8.9cm x 6.2cm. On stiff paper cardstock. Stiff at first to riffle-shuffle and great for over-hand. The man and woman both face to the right. I love the cardbacks. They have an aged look, blue and cream. The images are large and clear. The only 2 that I would change are the Roads which shows only one road, and the Key which shows a heart right next to it and confuses me when i look at it.
The verses are in English by Stuart Kaplan and most are relevant, some not so much imho. I am an inexperienced reader. I need to read the LWB to see whether he mentions how he wrote these. My first deck w/ verses!
Guess I should mention this on the Blue Bird thread.
Here's what Lynn RA fm US Games said on the Blue Bird thread:
Blue Bird Lenormand- Due Date
The arrival date of this new deck at port is January 8. It will take a few days to clear customs, get shipped to Stamford Ct, and put into inventory. Once that happens, it will be available on our (U.S. Games) website. I will announce its arrival on our Facebook page and I will pop in here too! It typically takes another 4-5 business days to be on Amazon and other vendors.
Thanks again AT friends! Lynn
I hope this prevents too many emails asking when these will arrive Lynn RA
