Well, Lillie's curiosity is getting the better of her again. I have seen a deck on Ebay UK and I have no idea what it is. It looks a funny old thing and I am most interested. It is named 'Antique Vintage Tarot Deck' And it's ebay number is 5565906405. I would link to it, but of course I can't. By the way, I am not the seller, or a bidder (too high for me already!), I'm just the curious watcher of things. So, somebody tell me what it is and put me out of my misery, please.

Ah, I wish I knew what it was too. I just saw the auction and I wish the seller would have scanned some of the cards so we can actually see what they look like. Will be interesting if anyone knows what this is.

I must admit they are different looking. Maybe some of our resident deck experts could say. Grand Etteila??

I asked the seller if I could have a better picture of some of the cards. I have a habit of asking nosey questions to sellers wether I intend to bid or not! Anyhow, he did send a pic, it's not brilliant, but you can see the whole of some cards, but not read the names, unfortunatley. I will try to attach it here. He also said there had been a lot of interest in these cards, as the bidding would suggest. I see the same names again and again on ebay. Some people seem to have loads of money to spend! Oh well, I have a psychotic husband and a black and white dog, so who am I to moan!

Definatly not the Grand Ettelia.
