Baroque Bohemian Cats 1st ed vs 2nd ed. question

Karen, these side by side shots are HUGELY helpful. Now I know I prefer the 2nd version overall, so I won't spend my money on the 3rd.

I have the 3rd Edition, but I was expecting to get the borders from the 1st edition when I bought it. I will probably acquire the 1st edition sometime in the next couple of years. It's so lovely!

I wonder if people who have the 1st edition prefer it over the pocket edition?

Yes they do.

Well I do

The dress color she's talking about is the 2 of Swords, it's not the Queen.
I think the dress color looks really nice in either blue or yellow.
I was never bothered by the change. I did like the change of the wheel
of fortune card. Never understood the original version with the mirror, etc.
I love the reader card so it was great to see it used in the Wheel cards spot.

Oh yes, it's the 2 of swords, you are right, Karen!

Do you all think the Gold version is the rarest, or the 1st edition with borders? Are they similar in value?

The BBCats gold was a limited edition of 500 decks. The BBCats first edition deck was not a limited edition.
MRP never tells the quantity of their printings but I bet at least 2000 on the BBCats first edition.
They are not the same price when you try to buy them now. The BBCats Gold is about $250 or more.
You can pick up the BBCats first set for about $100-$150. I see these all the time.
NOT that there aren't exceptions, I'm sure if you watched you might be able to find them for less.
These are average prices I see them selling for.

Good to know. I definitely want to hunt down the 1st edition at some point, when all my money isn't going into our new house! lol
