I know this deck was made...I have seen it in the past. Any idea where to get one? The cards were really big, like 2-3 times the size of the regular deck.

Ive seen it at many bookstores, like Borders and Barnes and Noble.

I think you mean the Giant Rider-Waite Tarot Deck: Complete 78-Card Deck, the size is 4" x 6 1/2" ISBN: 0880794747 at US$24, you can buy it from amazon.

Yes, thank you! I kept searching "large" and "oversize," but apparently it's "giant." LOL I'll add it to my wish list. I think this is superfun, great for parties and displays.

I didn't realise that this was a giant complete 78 card deck - I always thought it was the 22 Majors only. Oh well - another for the wishlist. :D

Do buy this deck if you ever get the chance. I reserve it for really important readings because it really does give an extra sense of intensity and formality, the cards being so large. I have to use a larger cloth and obviously can't use the table so the reading has to be conducted on the floor! There's just something rewarding about seeing the Rider Waite drawings in large format - even if I didn't read with the deck I would still have it just to look at. Chris. xx
