5.0 out of 5 stars Major Addition to any collection!!!, June 12, 2005

By	Richard K. Kostoff "karmarich" (columbus, oh) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Medieval Scapini Tarot: Deck and Book Set (Hardcover)

This tarot deck is one of the finest in print! It was one of the first packs I began learning from in 1986. It is replete with all the occult trapping and mysterious images one could look for. There is one difference from other tarots of a similar nature-it has this brilliant sense of humor! The tarot is like an oil lamp. It can either light your way, or burn down your house. This particular pack offers the protection of laughter in a reading, which I find so relevant.
The details here are too numerous to mention. One can almost sense the mist rising from the Moon card, or feel the warmth in the Strength card. The Minors are so highly detailed that I am still noticing various flora and fauna. The backs are always important as welll. These are of a gilt goldtone that dont wear away after years of use.
If you are looking to branch out with your mystical dabblings and wish to give your reading new flash, look no further! This is my most recommended pack for beginners and intermediaries alike. Very little nudity, so this would be fine for clients of all ages!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best!, December 25, 2006

By	Avalon (Boise, ID) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Medieval Scapini Tarot: Deck and Book Set (Hardcover)

This is the most accurate deck that I have ever read from. It is almost always accurate even about things people don't want to believe. This was my first deck and every one I have used since has given less detail. The cards are slightly larger than some of the more recent decks and I really like that. It really sets the tone, as if my hands recognize that these are different. The artwork is really unusual, they look painted, with gold backs. These cards still look beautiful after years of use. Still my favorite after trying many different decks!
