I recently uploaded two older out-of-print decks. The Thomson-Leng deck (1935) is a rare item that I spent several years tracking down. It's loosely based on the RWS with some Marseilles touches and unique imagery of its own. The Knapp-Hall deck (1929), co-created by J.A. Knapp and Manly Hall (author of "The Secret Teachings of All Ages"), uses Marseilles-style imagery for trumps and a unique symbol-logo system for the pips. Paul Foster Case refers extensively to the Knapp-Hall deck in his book "Oracle of the Tarot." The popup notes include both the basic LWB interpretations as well as portions of Case's commentary, which take into account elemental dignities and explains the logo images.
The artwork for both is exceptional and brightly colored (especially the Thomson-Leng). They're quite different from modern Tarot decks. I hope you enjoy these.

Re: Two vintage decks available
Much appreciated and will certainly seek these two decks, and see why PFC was so interested in them. Being an ex bota student, their input will be enlightening to say the least!!!!
Thank you
Thank you

ZenMusic,
I just checked - it's there. Search for 'Thomson-Leng' in the P2P file exchange. Let me know if you're having difficulty.

I'm not seeing it either, have you ran the check to make sure others can see your decks?
