78 card Jean Noblet Tarot by Jean-Claude Flornoy

[Sulis]

I just ordered a copy

(It was the nipples that swung it )

 

[le pendu]

Look at the Knight of Bastons! I love his face... and the HORSE! Delightful.

I just ordered a copy from Jean-Claude and Roxanne. I have been waiting for this for ages!

Can you do the 17th century Bolognese tarot next? (I believe all the trumps exist, only a few of the suit-cards missing...)

[prudence]

Well, our scan was glad to get the hand-colored cards pretty much right, but these court cards don't really reflect the colors as they are in "real life". The red here is much too "tomato". Too much yellow, I guess. And the rest are falsified, as well. I'll replace them when I can get something better, but for present purposes I imagine they'll do.

Thank you Roxanne! These are wonderful, even if they seem more tomato-y than they do in real life.

Though I would normally be partial to any queen with her nipples blazing so proudly, I think my favorite is that Knight of Swords. He and his horse look so determined and in synch. I also like the playfulness of the Knight of Cups' horse, I'd love a horse like that.

I laughed right out load when I saw the King of Bastons face looking at his nipply queen as if to say, "For goodness sakes put on a shirt we have guests."
They are all so expressive....love the Page of Swords and his diaper.
And look at the nose on that Queen of Denier...what a face..she looks like my Aunt Agetha.
I shall have to get one, this is too good to pass up....

I sent my payment this afternoon. I can't wait to post a review!

 

[Debra]

Lovely, lovely! I've called the soldiers back to garrison and taken off my false eyelashes!

 

[Paul]

Wooo Hooo!

I've been waiting for this for a long time.
I ordered 2, but then wanted more, but then thought two's enough, and then wanted more!
I really am going to calm down.

 

[jmd]

ONLY 2??? with birthdays and Christmas and Hanukah and Mothers' and Fathers' days and any other worthwhile reason to give someone a gift ... only TWO???

And then, we saw what happened to the Dodal and its incomprehensible price increase to consider!

Surely they're cheaper by the dozen !!!

They're very expressive. I'm quite taken with ALL of the Cups courts. Thanks for showing us!
