Tarot Original 1909 deck

The Tarot Original 1909 is Lo Scarabeo's Italian-made reproduction of the Arthur Edward Waite and Pamela Colman Smith deck, restored as faithfully as possible to how it looked when first published. The coloration has a warm, slightly buttery quality and the finish is matte rather than glossy, giving the cards a tactile pleasure that many modern reproductions of this deck lack.

This is a deck that works for everyone from complete beginners to readers who have spent years with the Rider-Waite tradition and want a version that feels as close as possible to the original. The production quality is a step up from most mass-market editions, and it shows in the hand.
