A pack of 78 tarot cards by Ian Cumpstey with imagery closely following early Italian tarot styles.
The cards are all text-free, so the cards work as a visual iconographic language.
The original line artwork was all hand-drawn with pen and ink at the same size as the final printed cards.
The cards are printed at a size of 62 x 100 mm on smooth black-core playing card stock, and are delivered in a custom printed tuck box. The cards were printed by Ivory Graphics in England in 2024.

The changes, what's new for this second edition: Some of the lower-numbered pip cards are fancier, with flower-leaf decorations or fancier pips (or both). There may be one or two minor differences in the linework elsewhere as well. Also there are new colours, a different colouring method, a new box design, and a different printer.
