Who can resist the breathtaking power and magic of Lady Frieda's art??

Who wouldn't want to read with the gripping power and composition of those pip cards?

I'm too dumb to read with the Thoth - but it is so beautiful - I have several copies and was eyeing the newest one with a green border. :-

No reason. Just for interest as the 2 "extra" cards that come with most decks. Lady Frieda painted 3 versions of the Magician - Aleister accepted one.

Shame. I was most disappointed that my pocket version only had "the one".
For some reason, having all three makes it more intriguing and "complete" for me - as my first deck had
all 3.
The "Golden Surfer" is beautiful - but the other two are equally enchanting.
(I'm rather partial to the "brass running man" myself).
