Speaking of Baba Studios and Magical Realist Press

 It looks like The Fairytale Tarot may never be reprinted again either, so you might as well buy some copies from The Tarot Garden, Amazon or B&N resellers very soon while you still can. I bought two of them, because I am starting to view these things as part of my mini investment strategy.

 Their upcoming Alice Tarot can be pre-ordered from The Tarot Garden, but be sure to register an account and log in first before you do so.


ETA: Minor edit because I should of looked at one of the Tarot deck sellers to see if they still have it.

The Fairytale Tarot (click the "more samples" button and enlarge to view more cards in this deck) is a particular favorite of mine. I hadn't been able to spend a lot of time with my three-year-old grandson, and he was wary of me. He was visiting, and I started looking through this deck, card by card. Curious, he wandered over and asked what the pictures were. He had only heard of a few of the stories, so as he turned over a card, I would tell a thumbnail version of the fairytale it depicted.

It became something we did together every time he visited. His dad told me he had never sat still so long for anybody else at that age.

The Emperor card is more appropriate for Death IMHO

I'm tempted to sell my copy of Bohemian Gothic deck, but only if I can make pretty good scans of each card first and print them out several decks for myself for it.

I might like Fairytale, it depends, which is why I got two copies this time around, just in case. It's partly due to how I don't think everyone who wants a reading from me wants to be read with a deck like Deviant Moon or Bohemian Gothic, though on the other hand when it comes to readings I think choices in decks should be limited (kind of like astrology, when I get back to reading the olde source texts again there is no way I'll ever answer questions pertaining to past lives, which are unprovable, even though my mind is open enough to believe it's possible).
