Provenance

Where it came from

The Copper Tablet, numbered 238 in the Limited Edition Alpha set, is a quintessential piece from the original 1993 release of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Created by Wizards of the Coast, this set was designed to establish the foundational rules and mechanics of the collectible card game genre, with artwork and lore often drawing from high-fantasy archetypes to build a unique world for players.

The card features artwork by Christopher Rush, one of the most prolific and iconic illustrators in the game's early history. His approach for this piece emphasizes the tactile, ancient quality of the artifact within the game's mythology. Upon its release, the card became a modest staple for players exploring the game's early deck-building strategies, representing the experimental and formative era of game design that would eventually define a global hobby.
