A Titanic inspired tarot deck designed to symbolically finish the voyage that started over a hundred years ago

I'm assuming the fulfillment company didn't send the tracking numbers since I haven't heard anyone mention anything about it.
As of a few days ago, all packages have been sent out and are currently in transit. Most packages will arrive between July and August, according to the fulfillment company.
I'm sorry for the delay of the project. At first it seemed like I would be delivering early. Unfortunately with the global crisis that we're all sharing together, things didn't go 100% to plan. Murphy's Law says that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Hopefully Murphy's Law will give us a break for the final stage of the project.
As we wait for Titanic to reach the final destinations, I'll put some focus onto the Oz tarot deck. I'll find some ways to plus it. Since the launching of Oz is now pushed out until closer to August, we have time to think of ways to plus the project. Feel free to leave some ideas in the comments below or send me a direct message.
If I get time closer to July, I'll send out the tracking numbers. It won't be an easy task emailing nearly 300 tracking numbers. I'll have to go to the fulfillment companies dashboard and manually open each order to retrieve the tracking number to email out to you guys. I should have time after June 27th because my work will be shutdown for four weeks. The ripple effect of the economy closing. We're essential workers until we're not. lol
As of right now, the tracking number only says when it left the fulfillment company and that it's currently in transit. I'm assuming they're on the slow boat from China to various parts of the world. Once they get off the boat, that's when more information will be available.
I hope everyone has a great summer. Thanks for your support on this project and I hope you support me on the Oz project.
To help ensure the product gets to you unharmed, we’re using 4 layers of bubble wrap. We are also using inflated air bags. That’s the current hold up. Just waiting on the proper sized air bags to arrive. Should be shipping soon.
Here's one last video that will show you how the wood boxes will look when they arrive to you. We made a slight change to the plans. We decided that the box didn't close as nicely with the boarding pass inside (due to the wax seal and thicker paper I used)... so that's why we created an outer sleeve. The outer sleeve is designed to hold the boarding pass.
In addition to what you see in the video... they'll also be shrink wrapped for full protection. You can never be too safe.
It looks like they'll be ready to send to the fulfillment company in the next day or two. I think (don't hold me to this) that you'll all be emailed a tracking number. If not, pretend I didn't say that. But if you are emailed a tacking number, that's when I'll decide on a launch date for Oz. Right now, I'm thinking middle to end of June.
They're just wrapping things up now. They just need to add the brass nameplates to the ones who ordered brass name plates and then shrink wrap. After that fulfillment will start. For those who ordered add-ons, you'll be receiving more than one package. So don't be surprised to get your add-ons before the Titanic tarot deck.
Here's some photos the printer sent me yesterday....
I hope these get to everyone safely. I also hope you enjoy them and cherish them for many years to come.
