The Classics of the Tarot Paperback – 1 January 2010

Lovely product. The deck is so good with well printed imagery & a mini guide book. The thickness and quality of cards are good. Overall a great product.

Boht acha product hai ap eyes closed kr ke khrid skte hain boht achi quality hai I love it thankiew ❤so much 😍😍😍💕

The product is good. Comes with all cards and a small guide. However, some of the pages of the guide are stuck together and need to be cut with scissor/blade. The cards and guide come in a box which was torn on some sides when i received it even though it was in plastic packing. I had to get another pouch for the cards because the box it came in was not durable at all.

They're absolutely great

The cards have no lamination whatsoever, on back or on front. Corners are rounded and cards are evenly cut. Comes in a tuck box which also seems to lack lamination but i could be wrong about this. It just feels different to the touch that other tuck boxes. It will not last.These are the thinnest cards I've ever owned, actually thinner that the covers of classmate school notebooks. Not all thin decks are bad, some shuffle like a dream. This one shuffled like a nightmare though. I am unable to shuffle these using any method at all. I can't even swirl them around on a table top gently. These cards bend and fold if you just breathe at them (not really, but close to it).The images are all badly printed, color and lines both totally off. For an advanced reader, this deck would be a major nuisance, and for a beginner they would not be able to learn anything with this one as the images are very unclear. Both can give it a miss. Even I'm going to try and return it.The tiny bound book that comes with it is better than the useless white booklet that comes inside the dark blue and pale yellow pack of 'Original Rider Waite deck' retailing at somewhere between 700-900, you know, the one that shows up first on each search. This booklet is a direct excerpt from the 'Key to the Tarot' by Arthur Waite, and has a tiny picture of each card near the explaination page. It's actually quite nice and handy for a quick refresh. Unfortunately, the booklet alone doesn't make the deck purchase worthy.Packaging was very nicely done by the manufacturer, it's clearly a new and unopened deck. And i recieved it in lots of foam type wrap in perfect condition. Quite pleased on that count, i was. That's why it was even more upsetting to open a perfect box and see such apalling cards.The backs are so pretty to look at, seriously pretty. But the quality of the cards is so godawful. You can purchase and use as bookmarks for your tarot related books if you wish, but that's about it.Hope this review helps.

This is a very beautiful tarot deck. The quality is amazing. I received the package 📦 without any damage. Very happy. Thank you Universe...

It has complete 78 card deck with instruction booklet, having 22 major Arcana, 56 minor Arcana in full colors. Which is designed by Pamela Colman Smith,under the direction of Arthur Edward Waite, it's like original tarrot deck with good illustration the Classic tarot is the best.

Cover is very flimsy and not durable

A.E. Waite, in collaboration with Pamala Coleman Smith, invented the Tarot deck that launched a thousand clones and is what the English-speaking world sees when it imagines a Tarot deck. Waite is held in low esteem these days, but it’s time for a reappraisal. The classic Pictorial Key to the Tarot is a mighty corrective to the silliness that followed. It’s not the best introduction to divination or fortune-telling, but might be the best introduction to the Anglophone Tarot tradition. (Waite is ambivalent about fortune-telling.) There is a lot of history here, not just in his myth-busting, but as a historic milestone of a book itself. It may be just a start of your journey into Tarot, but Waite will get you pointed in the right direction at least, and warn you about some of the hazards along the road ahead. Truly timeless.
