The Dark Grimoire Tarot

i saw some discussion in the 2008 thread,, but i feel this deserves it's own thread.

the only pictures for this tarot to be found so far, is at amazon

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0738713848/ref=nosim/aeclectic/

http://www.llewellyn.com/bookstore/book.php?pn=H384
doesn't have any pictures.

can anyone show me a link where more pictures are to be had, and what are you thoughts on this tarot,,
I think that given "This ominous, exquisitely crafted tarot is ideal for magicians, witches, horror fans, and anyone drawn to the dark side. "
it is not so focused on a dark grimoire
but then a look at grimoire would bring
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grimoire

so it could be called dark textbook of tarot (but grimoire sound better)
i think dark here refers to gothic.

so can the publishers when they read this send some scans to solandia for us to preview (look crazily for scans)

I have my eyes on thisdeck..
when is the release?

I too am looking forward to seeing more cards from this deck! I have not seen any other scans of cards other than what Amazon is showing.

I was able to pre-order the deck on the Amazon site in the US. According to their info, it will be available on September 1, 2008.

Me too! I am also waiting in anticipation for more card scans from this deck. Amazon U.K also has it on pre-order but I don't want to commit just yet.

Maybe this will finally be the right deck for me to use with my LARP Mage character...

One way or another, it's certainly pretty looking. *grin*

There are sketches and samples on page 107 in Lo Scarabeo's Anniversary Book.

Seems like the deck was called "Tarot of the Unspeakable" at the time of the book's publication.

Probably around then in the US, I'll be getting mine from Alida in Italy, the LoS decks are released many months in Europe before they are in the US, so it should be released in Europe pretty soon now !

I would also love to see more pictures.

Hi,

I managed to get a few samples online.

Looks like a Lovecraft tarot. Very well done.
