  • Welcome to the Madwitch Cottage and Im sooooooo excited to share this amazing purchase with you.
    the Austin Osman Spare is a beautiful deck that is a 'Sandra made me do it' purchase...along with the books ‪@SpiritofAvalon‬
    Lost Envoy edited by Jonathan Allen and a biography by Phil Baker. The deck is a beautiful copy of the original and Strange Attractor Press have done an amazing job of bringing Spare's work to life again.
    I believe there are still copies available on their website:

    Hello Giselle! The cards are slightly bigger than they are in reality to make the details more legible. Some of the motifs in the deck join up together which further shows the connection between the cards.
    I don’t know if the deck was ‘finished’ but the version in the Magic Circle, which I understand may have been for AOS’s own use, was missing the Strength card. Fortunately a black and white version of the card had been previously photographed - and the deck contains a faithful reproduction of that image.

    What an interesting deck, it feels so personal. I seem to remember something in The Golden Dawn book about initiates having to create their own decks. I wonder whose else could be out there, still waiting to be found?? 🤔

I was so pleased when you saw it and also loved it and it’s great you have managed to get a copy as well as the books too. As you know, I still have to get the book about Austin Osman Spare’s life but I definitely will get it. Great video Giselle, I really enjoyed it 🥰💖
