Zen de CARC

Otra aburrida baraja de inspiración Wynn, esta vez de la mano de CARC y EPC.

No se sí soy yo pero el estuche de la segunda foto no parece el mismo de la primera...

Una imagen más. El nombre no tiene que ser Zen, aunque por ahora me referiré con este nombre.

Aquí más información oficial

Traducción libre y resumida:

Habra dos versiones: Zen y Zen Pure

Zen: Rediseño de la baraja de Samuel Murray de National Playing Card Co, con 125 años de antiguedad. El nombre es un homenaje al libro Zen de Eugen Herrigel.

Las caras son las usadas en la baraja Exquisite, la caja en color rojo con papel metálico y relieve. El papel y acabado es el mismo que la baraja Zentith.

Zen pure: Modificación del dorso Zen, se quitan todos los detalles menos las líneas externas y las caras.

La Zen se lanzará en un par de semanas y la Zen pure en verano. Se imprimirán una gran cantidad de barajas, por lo que es probable que cuando se lance la Zen Pure haya stock de la Zen.

Original:


There will be 2 decks in it initially, Zen and Zen Pure.

The Zen deck is our redrawn version of an amazing old design by Samuel Murray of National Playing Card Co. from about 125 years ago. It's an art nouveau style back with our Exquisite faces. We used our sideways tuck made of solid red premium stock with black foil, foil over embossing and blind embossing.
We dubbed it Zen (Mr. Murray didn't) in an homage to one of our favorite books, Zen in the Art of Archery by Eugen Herrigel. This great book explains the thought process behind world-class archery and this same technique can be transferred to high level sleight of hand.
We really love this design and how the cards perform. On the Zen we used the same stock and coating as Exquisite and Zenith.

Zen Pure could have been called Zen V2 but we though that wasn't an interesting name.
Zen Pure is the exact back design of Zen with all the extra details removed except the two outer lines and the faces. We used the same PMS color so that magicians might have some fun doing color changes where just some of the design disappears.
Believe it or not the whole design was spawned by just fooling around with Zen and only after it was finalized and printing did we realize how similar it was to other solid color with pendant back designs that already exist. It wasnt intentially derived from Wynn or Madisons or IMPS (which we hadn't seen when this was done) or any other deck. It was just a "pure" version of the Zen we had.

We will release the Zen first in the next couple of weeks and then later in the summer we will release the Zen Pure. I'm sorry that means that some customers will double up on postage but we don't think it wise to relase them at the same time. We printed a good supply and will not call them limited so if some collectors want to wait to order both they are probably safe in that. We can't guarantee that Zen won't sell out right  away, but, per our custom, we will reserve some for future variety boxes. That way the colletor who want's everything will have at least two bites at the apple.

I hope this explains things for everyone but if not I'll be happy to clarify anything fuzzy. For more images etc. we will post them form time to time and in various places. Probably our Instagram account ExpertPCC is the first place we will release images of our upcoming decks.

Ahora me tengo que ir, ya lo pondré traducido:


As many will already know from this thread and elsewhere, Expert Playing Card has been working on a new red Zen deck. This is the deck with the detailed retro back design and sideways embossed and foiled tuck. In our efforts to keep pushing the boundaries of fine deck production we have done some experimenting with the deck's coating chemistry. Becuase the red Zen and Zen Pure are experimental prototypes these decks will not be for sale, ever. Instead we are going to give them away starting this afternoon!
For each mixed brick of NOCs you buy from Conjuring Arts you will get one experimental prototype Zen deck. I hope this will please both NOC lovers and deck collectors.
Please keep an eye out for the announcement today.

¿Cuando son los gastos de envío?

[max]

Pues me estaba planteando comprarme un brick, para conseguir la baraja. Sólo el brick tiene unos gastos de unos $26, pero he añadido un par de Owl Eyes (las que me faltaban) y se subía el First Mail a casi $40 aunque aparecía también la opción de la Priority flat rate a $25. A mí me da un poco de miedo porque estoy gafado con aduanas y priority, pero si alguien se anima, yo encantado de pedir un brick de esos para el zen...
