Your favorite card backs?

feynrir

If a thread like this already exists out there, I apologize! It's not easy to search for/find. Or maybe I'm just an idiot.

Do you guys have favorite card backs? I definitely do!

1. The Paulina Tarot
2. ISIS Tarot de Marseille
3. ORWS (white lilies back)
4. Anna K
5. Thoth (the Rose Cross is lovely and inspiring, though I don't necessarily find it one of my very top favorites as a back.)

Runners up: Morgan-Greer (that blue!) and the Tarot Illuminati

All stick out to me for having wonderful backs that actually encourage me to use the cards--besides the ORWS, which I unfortunately have never actually owned. Truly, this aesthetic touch does matter quite a bit to me!

I also admire Seven Stars' many gorgeous alternate card backs, and would love to be able to get a DotB someday with a prime choice back :)

Let's hear your top 3 or 5 favorites!

Oooh yes the Paulina Tarot would make my list too! So elegant. Also...
Daniloff (it's just so lovely)
Cosmic Tarot (beautiful and also made a cameo in Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Morgan Greer (1970's stars)
Aquarian (pretty waves, reminds me of Japanese art)

Deck/s of the Bastard - fabulous backs!

I think all of the Baba decks' backs are fantastic - the Tarot of Prague, the Fantastic Menagerie, all editions of the VR, BG and BBC decks, and the Alice standard deck, which may be my favorite!

I really love the backs for the Wizard's Tarot, though the fronts don't grab me.
