The Cloisters set of fifty-two cards constitutes the only known complete deck of illuminated ordinary playing cards (as opposed to tarot cards) from the fifteenth century. There are four suits, each consisting of a king, queen, knave, and ten pip cards. The suit symbols, based on equipment associated with the hunt, are hunting horns, dog collars, hound tethers, and game nooses. The value of the pip cards is indicated by appropriate repetitions of the suit symbol. The figures, which appear to be based on Franco-Flemish models, were drawn in a bold, free, and engaging, if somewhat unrefined, hand. Their exaggerated and sometimes anachronistic costumes suggest a lampoon of extravagant Burgundian court fashions. Although some period card games are named, it is not known how they were played. Almost all card games did, however, involve some form of gambling. The condition of the set indicates that the cards were hardly used, if at all. It is possible that they were conceived as a collector’s curiosity rather than a deck for play.

This time we have dove into the elements - and have created a deck that connects to the spirit of nature. To the core of Gaia and Spirit. 78 Tarot Ecological is a Limited Edition Deck - the only copies that are printed are the ones we fund via Kickstarter. They are never reprinted, due to contractual obligation to our artists. We do it this way so our decks are one of a kind collector's pieces that only a thousand people will get to own in this lifetime. We're humbled and privileged to work with SO MANY fantastic artists on this project, some of whom bring their own experiences of creating art for Oracle and Tarot decks, or publishing decks themselves. We have many returning artists for this deck, including 78 Tarot Veterans Meredith Dillman, Jessica Douglas, Tanya Bond, Michael Calandra, Leilani Joy, and Selina Fenech to name a few. 78 Tarot decks are fully functional and rich in symbolism. With each artist creating only one image for the deck, it allows them to really pour themselves into the classic history of their card – whilst putting a modern themed twist to it. Each of our decks have a theme to follow, which we find lends a cohesiveness in the storytelling from 78 different storytellers. https://www.78tarot.cards/
