I see that University Books spelled Pamela Col[e]man Smith's name wrong on the box even though it's spelled correctly on the insert cards. Does that makes the deck worth $193?

I have two of these decks and will put in a few pictures below.
One box/deck that I have is very much like Lillie's and Cerulean's
University Books inc. New Hyde Park, New York 1104 but the "blank card" has a postal code of 11040 for the 5.00 THE PICTORIAL KEY TO THE TAROT rather then the boxes four digit code. This deck has brilliant. verging on gaudy colours and many cards have colour outside the lines. '60, '62, or '66 ?
This next deck is much more subdued in its colouring and much more precise in the beginning and end of the colours within the lines. I got this one from Lillie. It is a 2 piece maroon hard cardboard box and is a beauty. '59?
