Bought a Russian Tarot - any info?
#1
Bought today, opened but in very good condition, a version of this deck

https://www.alchemywebsite.com/tarot/dat...rd496.html
(thank you for your database Adam!)

But this one appears to have had the artwork shifted upwards, losing the numbering at the top of the card, and then keywords (?) in Cryillic script in the bottom border.
The accompanying A4 sheet is also completely in Cryillic script - so i have little idea of age or anything else.

Is this the same deck as in the database, or a re-working? Does anyone know?
And the eternal question - what should I have paid for it? laughs
With thanks
PathWalker

Ah, using Adam's information about the artist, I find this version for sale on etsy - dispatching from the Ukraine, and at £25.
So I'm thinking a reprint of the original version.

Very happy to have found it even as a reprint

Mine is exactly like Adam's. So is every single one I can find on line including that alarmingly priced one on etsy and an even more expensive one on a collector's site). I can find downloads of the entire deck, which troubles me. Mine cost me £20, but it was still in print then, and Tarotgarden used to sell it for $45.

I see you can buy it cheaply from Pyroskin..... (assuming it is in stock - one never knows !) But even theirs looks like mine....

You can copy the Cyrillic into word and put it up on google translate....

Here's an old thread which talks of another version:
