I've just bought a second-hand Egyptian tarot from Spain, missing its box and LWB. The vendor said it was published by Naipes Comas.
The designs are exactly the same as the Egipcios Kier, but the colours are different: e.g. all the trumps have a yellow background rather than a metallic one, the Magician is dressed in blue, and so on. The cartouches have a curved top, like the original Kier pack, rather than the straight one in the US Games Systems version. It doesn't have the inscriptions at the sides that the original had, but the names are identical (e.g. La Retribucion for the Wheel).
The only Egyptian tarots from Spain that I can trace are Esther Casla's (from Fournier) and Margarita Arnal Moscardo's (from Comas), and it's certainly neither of those: they differ significantly from the Kier pattern.
Has anyone seen or heard of this?
