I've not even heard of the company or the set.

None of my suppliers offered it to dealers.

So, if they are direct or possibly Diamond Comic exclusive, you're only going to see a few unless they get the word out.

I pre-ordered a set of this some time ago and it showed up this past week. Honestly, it's a very nice set. The art is somewhat different, but it's just quirky enough that I like it. My set included 2 random chase cards and a sketch card; the first chase was a 'Presidential Postage' insert card which features an original 8 cent Lyndon B. Johnson stamp (uncancelled) mounted on a card backer done up to look like the old airmail envelopes from the '60's. The second chase was a 'Presidential Poster' insert card that is a reproduction of a Kennedy/Johnson campaign poster (neither card is numbered and I have no idea of how many total insert cards there are). Finally, the 'Presidential Portrait' color sketch card I received was of Ronald Reagan (by Carlos Cabaleiro) and is really quite well done. Overall, I really like this 44 card base set and the few inserts included, but I do wish a checklist card had been included or some other listing of the total number of inserts for this set. Either way, it's a nice addition to my collection and I would recommend it to anyone interested in the US Presidency.

Does anyone have a link to a current website for Pastime? I can't get any of the links posted to work.

Starting to look like this company is a scam. No artist has been paid that I know of. I'll be out 100 bucks but some did 50 cards or more.

This is their Twitter, at least:

I got that from a Google cache of their website from the 9th April. It also had a link to a facebook page, but that did not work so may be AWOL too.

The link to their homepage I posted was working in the begining of April...

Something strange is going on here.
