Hmmm... interesting that JR didn't design the tuck to look more like a book, even though the front design can pass off as a cover. I suppose it shows just how much JR was really feeling the design for Alice; even more so compared to the other in the series.
I think part of that is that he was originally going to print with Mr. PC and then went to USPCC, and neither of those has the capability to make (or fill?) side load tucks. I don't recall the specific reasons but it's something along those lines.
I've spent way more than I care to admit on playing cards, but I'll still buy just about anything that Lorenzo, Jackson, or Gio make.
This deck is one of his finest. Truly custom in every sense. I'm personally glad he didn't do the book style box, as I feel it is getting played out and takes away from the deck's beauty by covering up the actual tuck. I don't see too much difference between the standard and limited decks though.
I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long.

That looks like the work of the man who made me dive deeper into custom playing cards years ago. I'm glad he is still around .
Same here, just wish we saw more of that designer and less of the other one(s), especially that Kenny Wayne whatever personna that just isn't funny at all to me.
As far as I'm concerned, this is a true return to form for Jackson. Stellar design aesthetic, thematically loyal, custom in every sense of the word. LOVE this.
