Thank you all for your perspectives, MOST helpful
When one first takes a quick look at the Marseille, many seem so similar, ok besides color perhaps, but the basic images look very similar and yet I do see differences. And the clarity of some over others, whether woodcut or not, so affects the vibe of the deck. I am enjoying getting to know various decks and all of your input is so useful since many you can't just pick up on Amazon or are otherwise easily obtainable in the US. I know one CAN get them, but often pricey. Getting all your ideas and why you like different Marseille decks is invaluable. One of the reasons I love AT!

I cannot put my finger on it- but the imagery just stands out over any of the other Marseille decks I have owned. Perhaps due to the geometric drawings, I cannot be sure- but when I compared it to my Noblet, Camoin, Grimaud and others- it clearly had something more- but I cannot quantify what that something is...
