 I love on that one how one of the previous owners insisted on writing numbers so that he could pretend the deck was still in a perfectly proper reading state.

The deck either met an hungry rodent or an angry reader.

 Yes.  Definitely old, worn, abused, beat up

:cl

More than mine.  I'll post some pictures when I get a chance.  But I think you will win the "most beat up" contest.

 Hello,

There was a totally unbeatable winner on ebay a few days ago, Lismon Etteilla, ebay #170668429495
http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170668429495
I can't resist sharing one of the picture just in case you can't access them anymore.
Those three missing cards had been there, I definitely would have put a bid !

 There's something about this one that bugs me, almost like the wear and tear was faked....

The teeth marks on the top posted card look like cat teeth to me, and I have seen cat teeth on altogether too many things.  Then alittle mouse came to visit?
