Beschreibung

Sealed in publisher's cellophane. Facsimile of one of the most unusual tarot decks.- 'A unique feature of the deck is that the four aces depict animals gryphon, deer, unicorn and lion carrying flags having the symbols for the suits batons, cups, swords and coins. This may reflect the influence of German hunting decks which often have similar flags on the 10 card in each suit. The cards has French titles, with many misspellings (e.g., Ar instead of As , Le Pandut instead of Le Pendu , Trempance instead of Temperance ). For historical information on the deck and its origin, and its similarities to, and unique differences from contemporaneous Marseilles decks. The deck is usually dated to the early 1600s, but it has been argued that it may date from 1559. The deck is in the keeping of the Bibliotheque National de France.'. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers T2
