Thank you Enigma and le Fanu !
Ah ah. You enablers. I just gave in, and spent my birthday money and Baba rewards points on that deck. I did not get the pouch, I would probably have prefered the pouch than the wooden box, but it was unreasonable for me to get both.

ToP is perhaps my favorite deck and this printing is exquisite.
I can't explain it, but my larger Alice deck definitely "reads" better for me than its regular counterpart.

Thank you Enigma. I love this deck too, I have the regular size.... it is so beautiful, and it reminds me of a wonderful student music trip I took 25 years ago when I was in high school, with my music class. Plus, two of my kids also made a music student trip a few years ago with their music school orchestra. Lots of wonderful memories for us all there, and a strong wish to visit again one day. Plus, I love how the regular size reads, so I guess I will love the large one ! I like that you think that your large Alice reads even better than your regular Alice. maybe it will be the same for me here !

Whaow ! Not many people can shuffle an untrimmed Druidcraft ! Before I trimmed mine, I really strugled with shuffling, even when I tried to turn the deck on its shorter side... Actually I always overhad shuffle all tarot decks, because even a traditional RWS is too long for me to riffle shuffle it. But I am nevertheless very looking forward to my large Prague deck now that you all have enabled me so well !
