How many of you use the 1JJ Swiss tarot?
Im intrigued, as when I first started collecting tarot cards in the early 80s, this was The ubiquitous deck. And I see it quite rarely now though I know its still in print (a bit like the Tarot Classic; another ubiquitous 70s deck which has had a recent posting here). This was - for those who discovered tarot late 70s, early 80s - the most common initiating deck. When you thought of tarot, you thought of this. Yet I hear so little mention of it here now. Not even in the Historical Decks forum. Has it fallen out of fashion? I have a soft spot for this deck, but since there are a number of exquisite Soprafino decks on the market now, I wonder if they have stolen the 1JJ thunder a little?
Im keen to hear if anyone uses the 1JJ as a main reading deck.
