My RWS Collection

[@musingsbymascha]

I loved seeing your RWS Collection, Chris! ❤️ I love Pixie's Artwork a lot, and I tend to be finicky about her calligraphy (hence I do not own a "Dirty Pam"), as in always wanting to see HER hand-writing for the card titles!!❤️ I must say, I very much like Mary Nanson-Roberts colouring in the Universal & I love Brant's deck too! 🥰 Centennial RWS in a Tin was actually the first tarot deck I ever held in my hands.... so yeah! It's very special to my tarot heart! 🥰 Your Carol Herzer's Tarot is so beautiful! Interestingly, I have just realised, the number of the RWS decks in my current library is a few less than it was last year! 🥰 Thank you so much for sharing your RWS Collection, dear Chris! 🙏💖 Much love!💖

Thank you so much for watching mascha, what a lovely comment. Yeah I know what you mean about her calligraphy. Im not a fan of the titles on my yellow box for that reason. The dirty pam doesn't really bother me though. Ive been using my borderless radiant wise this week and quite like the titles. The universal might be my favourite one I LOVE the colouring! Thanks Mascha 🥰 x

Great to see your RWS's! The Original rider waite was also my first deck, I did a trim mod on mine also as the sides had got so battered over the years, and I loved how the images popped - but also later regretted chopping my 'mother deck' 🙈 😂

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Haha I know what u mean. I quick like mine tho. Its scabby and messy and banged up but its well loved and used. I used it just now to pull my cards of the day haha x

[@the_hermits_cave]

Ooooh you got the Total Tarot Dirty Pam!! (Okay more than 4 words)

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Yeah I decided to go for it. I thought why not lol x

[@aspasiarising4732]

I love the Carol Herzer decks! Have you seen the RWS 2.0? It's very nice, good line work and beautiful colors.

[@ElementalCartomancy]

I have! I call it the Robin tarot cos Robin from Toadstool Tarot uses it often lol x

[@the_hermits_cave]

Four words - My heart is full 😝

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Haha. Temptress! 😜🤣 x

[@the_hermits_cave]

@@ElementalCartomancy that made me chuckle 🤭

[@justinmichaeltarot]

I have to do a 2022 update of RWS.. . Thank you very much CKM! ☘️

[@ElementalCartomancy]

No worries JMP 😁🤣 thanks for watching pal x

[@marianamasbooks]

Great collection! Thank you for sharing. New subscriber here (and new to tarot!). The first deck I bought was the Light Seers, but the more I learn about the cards the more I love the symbolism in the RWS. I really want to get one now, but I’m going back and forth as to which version I want! 😂 Everyone seems to love the Centennial, but I do prefer the bolder yellow… It seems to be an unpopular opinion but I also really like the look with borders!

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Welcome Mariana thanks a lot for watching and for leaving a comment:). I LOVE the light seers! Its my all time fave. If you like the yellows then check out the standard deck that comes in the yellow box with the plaid backs. There are so many rws out there to choose from so I know what you mean its a tough choice. X

[@marianamasbooks]

@@ElementalCartomancy that's definitely one I'm considering :)

[@toadstooltarot]

You've made me wonder if I should do this. In my head, I've counted about 20 decks, but if I took a careful inventory it might be more.

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Definitely I would enjoy seeing that Robin x

[@ThatOneLazyNerd]

I think the solid blue backs of the Universal RWS you have is the ORIGINAL vintage before the starry blue backs.

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Ahh ok so this may be an early copy. Thats pretty cool :) thanks Alex x

[@3ofcupseclectictarotdaniel796]

I have honestly owned a few of the deck you radiant white sprite chunk deck and i had the centenial in a tin. Also a yellow box like yours. Now all i have and I think all ill ever need are 2 vintage yellow box with softer card stock and pixies titles . 1 I use and one I save. ... just in case.

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Nice :) I dont really have any vintage Smith-Waites. I like to be able to riffle shuffle and throw my decks about haha. Id be too scared if it was vintage x

[@3ofcupseclectictarotdaniel796]

I don't worry about shuffling and playing with mine the deck I use didn't come with a box or book.

[@BlueCrescentTarot]

"don't have my very first deck anymore; don't know what happened to it." ...isn't it crazy how many of us have that same story?

[@ElementalCartomancy]

Haha I know. What was your first deck? X
