Does any one recognize this Rider Waite clone?

[truelighth]

Want it

ETA.... mwahahaha got one (well, bought one....)

Thanks for the tip off !

Same here.. got one too. And it arrived today.
I have to say it is rather a good clone, compared to some others that I have seen (and bought ). Meaning the cards really are nice, art is nice.. and yet it is very very close to the RWS. Now.. just one question remains for me.. how am I gonna name this deck? Just Tarot won't do in my database .

It says the author is Edith Waite. I have no idea who Edith Waite is, forgive my ignorance... =/ All this time i thought that some brazilian publisher had decided to redraw all the RWS cards in the computer and make a fancier version of them.

You know, you may actually be right about that Marina. That a brazilian publisher just had it redrawn in the computer to make a fancier version. It sure looks that way. And the name Edith Waite.. well.. maybe they just made a mistake and it should have been Arthur Waite.. or maybe they took a name that was similar to make it sound more authentic...

Anyway, just guessing...

Brazilian Waite-Smith? Or possibly Jane Doe ?

Edith Waite Tarot?

LOL!!!

Well, I kinda like that one. I guess what I was more thinking of how we will refer to this clone in the future as well.. like maybe a universal name we can give it...

Well, I think thats what I'll be calling mine, but agree we should all agree on the name. There are quite a few of us, now, who've recently gotten decks.

What say you, people? This deck needs a name!
