Does anyone have a version of the "Tarô de Manur"?
I've just learned that it was the first deck to be published in Latin America and that I know of is the only deck published in Brazil.
The art is interesting but unfortunately the pictures on the web are out of foccus. Only MA cards are available.
For the ones interested in rare decks, there is a link where you can see the cards:

The MA names are in Portuguese but for educated tarohlitics it won't be a problem: written portuguese resembles french very closely.

Ummmm.... Alex... not to be too picky, but I think the name is Tarot de , not "manur" which sounds a bit like... well... never mind... :D
Anyway... very interesting artwork indeed. Love The Chariot, The Moon and The Star. But some of those faces are a little scary looking... :eek: ;) Still, a very interesting deck...

may be my subconscious mind didn't like the artwork too much.
I have noticed too, that some faces are scary. What strikes me a bit is that there is very, very little cultural reference in the cards, if any. Rather than one more classical deck, I would had included some local stuff.
The Chariot could be one of those cute boys surfing on two surfboards, one black, one white... oh well, boys used to try to stand up on two surfboards... That's a long ago, when I was a teen trying to catch skin cancer in the Copacabana beach.:D
