Interest Roger Zelazny's Nine Princes in Amber Custom Tarot Cards

Yep. I've investigated doing the cards myself, but there's no easy way to get the consistent print quality of professionally printed cards.
 
I've seen many fan made amber tarots over the years (mostly individual cards not whole decks) and knew of the French version which was both obscure and hard to buy. If you plan on a run, I'd certainly be interested.
 
Cool idea. Count me interested.
When I am searching for Hi-Rez pics for whatever reason I often search the “name/item” followed by “wallpaper”. Then switch from “all” results “images”You usually get an assortment of great high resolution photos to choose from.
 
I don’t know if this kind of thing helps. I hope so…

…the author has a few related postings. Could point you in the direction of higher quality stuff.

In this case, I have the original (LONG-out-of-print) cards and am going to make copies if I can get a company to do them.

I would be interested in one of these decks if you can get them printed. If not, would you consider distributing them digitally? Do you have the book that goes with the cards? If so, are you translating that as well?
 
Looks like the original French deck is getting a republish but with all references to Amber characters etc removed.

FLORENCE MAGNIN'S HOPSCOTCH TAROT

"The tarot will no longer be associated with Amber and the work of Zelazny at all. All references to this universe (title, booklet, names of figures) have been deleted for questions of rights.
The tarot will be presented in a cardboard box in A5 format.
The booklet, which has been completely revised , will help you discover all the subtle details of the card game
The 78 cards are now bilingual : French-English"

So basically the same cards, but with the blurbs for the Amber characters etc removed.
 
Working 40 hours a week is tough. I wish I had free time to finish all my old projects. (including this one)
 
What I need to do, since I've gone from working part time, to full time...is reorganize my work-play schedule. Before, with more days off, I would save some days off for doing shopping and running around, and some days off for hobby/crafts. Now, with only 2 days off a week, I either need to split my days off so they are some work/ some play, or try to use some of the time in small increments during the days that I work, but after work do something else additionally.
 
If this is still a thing, please count me in. My partner and I connected over this series, and I've been searching for a tarot deck (that won't cost me $1500, holy schneike) of Amber. Please please please let me know, and as a craftsperson, if there's anything I can do to assist in its completion, please don't hesitate to ask.
 
This is on the back burner. Not sure when I'll come back to it. Thanks for the offer of help!
