THE NEW TAROT DECK
Book Details + Condition: The New Tarot Deck. Taroco. 1974, stated second edition on box flap. Created by Jack Hurley, Rae Hurley and John Horler. Rare tarot deck with strong, solid illustrations of a mix of Egyptian, Tahitian, traditional and modern symbolism, with religious and mythological influences. Complete deck of 78 cards, including one extra blank card as well as a title card (for a total 80 cards). Includes an 8.5” x 14” folded double-sided instruction sheet with card images and interpretations, and sample spread. The deck and fold-out are in English. The instructional fold-out states: “The cards show archetypal images, basic to Western thought and behavior. Each card presents an aspect of reality. You can arrange the cards to show interchangeable patterns of action. Altogether they make a book of life. Each card is neutral, presenting actuality without judgment. Rearranged with every shuffle, each layout/readout mirrors a life or game sequence ranging from silly to saga. The cards may be read on many levels. Used as a gestalt or Rorschach, they are tools toward a greater understanding of self and society.” Box shows slight wear, but cards and leaflet are in excellent condition.
