Dollar Store Tarot Deck

My daughter found the deck in the image below at a local dollar store.  It cost $1.25 plus tax.  There are 78 cards in the deck. I can’t believe the good quality of the cards.  I don’t have a ruler to measure the cards but they are nearly full size Tarot; longer than a poker deck and a bit more slimmer in length. Although the dollar store deck is printed in China but then so are many other well known Tarot decks. It is similar to the 54  TAROCK PLAYING CARDS.

The dollar store deck is nearly identical to the  Tarot Nouveau.  Instruction for the French Tarot game is at the following:

Odd looking Tarot deck

Another wonderful deck to add to my collections. The Tarock Playing cards appear to be vintage and I am trying to date them. The deck arrived from Doscalfees Fine Quality Cufflinks e-store (Oregon).

I will definitely do a layout with these once I figure out the layout. These cards can be used to play a game and are not just for divination. The Major Arcana is double sided with non-Tarot related themes, they certainly remind me of earliest Lenormand deck of 52. Identical to the French Tarock from 1890 made by ASS Germany.
