Shakespeare Tarot or Romeo and Juliet Tarot (Dal Negro)

ana luisa

Even without much of a budget to spend on decks right now, I took the plunge and bought the Shakespeare Tarot with Luigi Scapini's drawings by Del Negro. Does it read as well as the Medieval (which I ADORE, btw ) ? I tried to find some info on it here but had no luck...

The smaller one is easily available from alida for 21 Euros 50.

I find Shakespeare decks in general easier and harder to read with; I use the images on the whole, adn I know my Shakespeare too well to forget the stories....

Oh yes - that's right ... I've seen that version online but I'm still holding out for a copy of the original brown box format... cheapest I've encountered it is $150 on Abebooks...

That's the smaller one you can get from Alida. You can tell by the box.

What sold me was the availability and the price. I have been in love with Scapini's art and the bigger version is selling for a small fortune. ;) I tried Alida but couldn't find the deck. I think they're out of it.

Unless they sold out today, they have it. Search Scapini. I THINK they may call it by its Romeo and Juliet name...
