Many thanks to Regina for cluing me into the existence of this forum!  My name is Ed Matuskey, and some of you may remember me from the Aeclectic Tarot forum where I posted for several years about the progress being made towards the steampunk-themed Tarot of Brass & Steam.  In fact I give the forum a great deal of credit for helping to get the word out when I ran a successful Kickstarter a few years ago!

 

Well I have great news: the deck is finished, and even as I type it's on a slow boat from China--I'm expecting to have them in hand end of May/beginning of June! 

 

That means US preorders are open!  Anyone who orders by May 31st will get free shipping (shipping to start in mid June). 

 

Unfortunately it seems my subscription isn't activating fully so I can't post a link, but you can find the link on Facebook (look for "Tarot of Brass & Steam"), or you can Google the deck's homepage! 

Here is the link for Tarot of Brass & Steam, with pre-order info: http://www.brassandsteam.com/

 

Congrats Ed- a gorgeous deck and so brilliantly designed!!  <3

 

P.S. I believe you'll be able to include links once you've made 5 posts  :)

Wow, that looks like a really cool deck

 

I love the artwork !!

Thanks SkyWatching!  And thanks for posting the link, Raven!  <3

 

Just a reminder that pre-orders end tonight at midnight (PST)!  Last chance for free shipping, a discount on the Special Edition guide book, and getting your decks before they go on sale to the general public on August 1st!

I just ordered the deck and book.  I see you're a Bioshock fan!  I am too and absolutely love your deck.  I can't wait to receive it!  <3

 

Edit:  I've searched through the images of your deck and think you don't have illustrated pips.  If this is the case, my son is still very much in love with this deck and we are happy to purchase it!

What a fantastic looking deck!  <3

 

Thank you for sharing it with us and for being here to show it off!

You are correct--42 of the 78 cards are illustrated (majors, court, and aces), but the pip cards aren't--they recycle their respective Ace illustration with a number superimposed on it, with the card name spelled out below like the others.  I almost sold it as a "half tarot," but decided a lot of great decks did the same thing, so I would to!  ;)  Hope your son likes it!

 

And thank you Little Fang!  <3 

I just got mine (backed on Kickstarter.) It's GREAT. A LITTLE large,  but lovely stuff. Very steampunk.

Finally checking back in--thanks for backing the project, Gregory--glad you liked the cards!

Also, no more need to pre-order--the deck is now on sale, both on its own site, and via Amazon!  Tell your friends!

 

That Knight of Wands is quite something, very powerful.

Oh my...... I simply had to have it......Thank you so much for this gorgeous deck!

Wow, this deck is stunning  ^-^  Ordered now :)

 

Estimated delivery: Dec. 14, 2018 - Jan. 7, 2019, in my part of the world, from Amazon  :(

But all things come to him who waits  :))
