Sealed in publisher\'s cellophane. Beautifully produced facsimile of one of the most unusual tarot decks/ Believed to be the earliest complete [78 cards] extant tarot deck. \'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 Marseille 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.\'
