Tarot Cards Fortune Telling Golden Visconti Tarot Arcana Box Japanese booklet included (Major only/Hard Edition) "Pocket Manual"

A reproduction of the Visconti-Sforza Tarot, known as the oldest surviving tarot cards. This is a set of 22 Tarot cards, containing only the Major Arcana. It is said to have been commissioned by the Duke of Milan, Francesco Sforza, to be made by the painter Bonifacio Bembo (also known as Antonio Sicogna) in 1460, and its design is different from today's standard tarot. When the set was first discovered, four cards, including "Devil" and "Tower," were missing, and it is unclear whether they had been lost or had never been there in the first place. This tarot is a reproduction of the original by the Italian card manufacturer, Lo Scarabeo. At that time, four cards were also given as compensation. These tarot cards are beautifully finished with gold leaf, giving them a luxurious feel. The cards are a set of 22 called the Major Arcana. The card has the card name and card number written in six languages. The reverse pattern is indistinguishable between upright and reversed. accessories: ・Original English, Italian, Spanish, French and German commentary ・A Japanese booklet explaining the basic meanings of tarot cards and how to read them (this is not a product-specific instruction manual) Japanese booklet contents ・Total 16 pages Size: 55 x 110mm - Black and white (text only) Table of contents: Names and meanings of Major Arcana cards/How to arrange cards/How to read/How to read with the addition of Minor Arcana Country: Italy Manufacturer: Lo Scarabeo / ITALY Card size: 80 x 145 mm Number of sheets: 22
