Provenance

Where it came from

Circle of Protection: White was originally featured in the Alpha set of Magic: The Gathering, released in 1993. Designed by Richard Garfield, the card was part of a cycle of enchantments intended to provide players with a defensive tool against specific color-aligned threats, reflecting the game's early emphasis on color-coded mechanical identity and strategic sideboard utility.

The 30th Anniversary Edition was released in 2022 as a commemorative tribute to the game's history. These cards maintain the original art by Christopher Rush but feature a modern card back and a specialized holographic security stamp to distinguish them from the vintage printings. This collection was intended to offer players a way to experience the aesthetics of the inaugural 1993 set within a contemporary framework.
