: : : : : : MARK OF THE CAT, 1992 illustrated by Karen Kuykendal : : : ISBN 0880794208 Tarot Of The Cat People, A Travelers Report is $9.95 and is NOT, I think, the book you mention above. : : : ISBN 0881795328 is the deck and book set for $26. : : : ISBN 0880790784 is just the tarot deck.: : Do you know if these Pre-date the MARK OF THE CAT book? : : I have copies of Karen's two illustrated books. I just wondered if after the MARK, Karen did a follow on tarot deck. : Sorry. I hope someone else furnishes that info. My personal knowledge is that Karen showed/sold the artwork at cons, like the WorldCon, for years and years. Then, one day, Andre's book came out. I'm pretty sure it was AFTER Karen's book(s). My best guess, based on selling metaphysical books (which includes tarot decks), but not having any hard info. in front of me, is that the tarot deck was done at the SAME TIME as the book with which it's sold. Of course someone COULD track down Karen and simply ask. I think she lives in CA (if she's still alive). (She was no spring chicken.) Paul here. The Mark of the Cat was 1992. the cards were(I believe) 1988. And SADLY, Karen passed away last June or July. Andre Norton related the tragic details to me over the phone a few weeks ago. Strangely, it was just before all these messages about the Tarot cards started appearing on this message board--spooky.
