Provenance

Where it came from

The Ninth Edition Swamp, specifically the version marked with collector number 342, was released in 2005 as part of the core set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Core sets of this era functioned as the foundational pillars of the game, designed to provide a consistent environment for both new and returning players. This particular card was intended to serve as a basic resource, providing the black mana necessary for dark-themed spellcasting within the game mechanics.

The artwork for this specific iteration features a haunting, atmospheric landscape typical of the genre, continuing the tradition of commissioning various artists to capture the eerie aesthetic of the Swamp environment. Ninth Edition is notable in the history of the game for being the last set to feature the classic card frame design before the transition to the modern frame, marking it as a significant milestone for collectors who appreciate this specific transitionary period in the game's long-running visual evolution.
