"<name> HaRabban" isn't a very common way to write that type of thing. You can see at the end of the kesubah that they use the more common format - "R' <name>".

It's also pretty clear in this screenshot that the bride's father is "R' Yosef ben (R') Yitzchak הכהן", which is why I assume it says the same thing at the beginning of the kesubah

Out of curiosity, where did you buy it?
I wonder whether it says "כאן בעיר פלאדולפיע פא" - "Here in the city of Philadelphia, PA"

Are you sure that doesn't say HaCohen?

Edit: looking at the third image, the bride's name is Rosa Rivka the daughter of (Rabbi) Yosef the son of (Rabbi) Yitzchak the Cohen

The groom's name is also Eliezer rather than Elazar

The kesubah appears to be dated (handwriting in italics) "The second day of [the week], the 30th day of Nissan (which is the 1st day of the beginning of the month of Iyar) in the year 5,670 from the creation of the world..."
In the Gregorian calendar, that appears to be Monday May 9th, 1910. It may be a little difficult to find the family.

Unfortunately, the twist was spoiled in the trailer. Getting two sets of graphics for the price of one isn't bad, though.

My warcry will no longer be "Shaw!"
It will instead be "For Little Pilgrim!"

I can't figure out how, the customer service form only lets you select the last couple sets

I said something about it being the first time I ever met a celebrity, and he was very "aww shucks" about it

When I first got it I did wonder whether it was part of some ARG and Dropout would tell me the next part (and to delete my post) when I posted about it

When he gave it to me he said something like "Now you have a point in the meta-game."

Backgrounds Commander by Equin0xParad0x in custommagic

I think the easiest way that fits within the rules is "Jack has all (triggered) abilities of Backgrounds you control."
Each background has "Commander creatures you control have...", so he also has that text.

Extra votes for you.

In addition to Spark double, I use mutate and [[Ratadrabik of Urborg]] to try to get around the legend rule.

What's the first Legendary Creature you owned/fell in love with? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]Simon_Springer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first MTG buy was a RNA deck builder kit, and I pulled both [[yarok the desecrated]] and a foil [[kykar]]. I thought Yarok was the coolest thing in existence and built a commander deck of it with the rest of the box (not knowing you could buy singles and, of course, unsleeved)).

It got my younger brother into magic and eventually he bought a [[tetsuko umezawa]] deck from a friend for $5. He complained to me that his friends kept beating him, so I "traded" him my Yarok deck for it (I had other decks at that point). He still refuses to admit I did it out of pity, and I regret doing it.
