La Sibylle des Salons (Parlour Sibyl)

Greetings All,

http://picasaweb.google.com/CartesdeSabrina/LaSibylleDesSalons#

I have been using this deck and with a little bit of revision from my fortune telling with playing cards memory I am finding it quite enjoyable/workable. Anyone else here like/use it?

I was surpised to find out that it is from the 1820's-1840's and that the artwork is by the French artist JJ Grandville as I thought for many years it was created in the 1960's. Cool deck and with bigger tarot like card size.

I have the LS version of this deck, Sibilla Oracle. I too, find it a very usable deck, my fave of my Sibillas, though I cannot speak about the size - not sure how mine compares with yours.

Who published your deck?

Hi,

It is published by Grimaud and it must be a newer printing, because it has their website address on the box and the little white book as well. The backs are medium green in a Two of cups Tarot Marseille patteren. The size looks to be about 4 1/4 by 3 1/4 inches, maybe slightly bigger. I will measure for real size when I can find a ruler in this house.lol...
