Le Fanu
I know this should be in Tarot Books and Media as it is ostensibly a book but I know it would appeal to many people because of the cards.
The Book Depository lists an edition of Oswald Wirth's Tarot of the Magicians which is going to be published ("268 days to go!") and comes with facsimilie pull out cards!
It will be wonderful to have Wirth's 1889 cards as they were published. I shall definitely want this... It's great to see them trying to re-establish Wirth's importance.

"Tarot of the Magicians" by Swiss occultist artist and author Oswald Wirth was first published in Paris in 1927, and a Weiser edition was later released in 1985.Long unavailable, the book is back in print in a beautiful new package with full-color pull-out cards reproducing Wirth's 1889 tarot deck. With a new introduction by bestselling tarot author Mary K. Greer, "Tarot of the Magicians" offers tarot enthusiasts and students of the occult an in-depth and authoritative analysis of one of the most beautiful and evocative of all modern tarot decks.In this important tarot work of the Major Arcana, Wirth combines the imagery and symbolism from Alchemy, Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism, and the magical heritage of Egypt and Chaldea, and explores the astronomical (rather than strictly zodiacal) associations for the Major Arcana cards.
