7th World

Its maker never attached a name to it, only a hard limit of one hundred copies and, per the archive, a direct approach to the reviewer after seeing them featured on an episode of The Collectors that covered their tarot collection on ABC-1. The creator sent a copy along to be kept in that collection, which is how this deck's story survives at all, through a chance television appearance rather than ordinary distribution. A hundred copies is a small run, likely out of reach for most interested readers, and the seventh world of the title stays unexplained, a locked door rather than an open one. What survives is scarcity and a personal chain of custody, the kind of provenance that matters more to collectors than to anyone building a working reading practice. It suits collectors of self-published rarities who value a deck's story as much as its cards. Readers who actually want to read with it will most likely never hold one.
