| Thanks, Bill. I really appreciate you helping me with the image. Unfortunately, I am technologically challenged when it comes to these things !
There are several different sets of these Earth Tribe cards, released between 1999 and 2002 which PCE lists. Up until 2021, I was missing 1 of the cards above. It was a very long road for me to find the last one which I needed.
After buying a nearly complete set about 20 years ago, I managed to track down the author of the book/comic on the internet, to ask if he still had the cards. He searched but came up with nothing.
Then in 2011, a Card Talk member who posted here only once or twice contacted me and said that she was the daughter of the artist who did the cards. She informed me that her father had passed away and that she had 1 set for herself, but unfortunately no extras. She even sent me images of them.
It took me another 10 years to find the last card, Jennifer Sheldon, which is Promo # 4 in the scan above. |
