Does anybody know what deck this 'fool' card is from?

[Chariot]

I recently bought a Lo Scarabeo deck, and this advertising card was included.  However, I have no idea what deck this Fool image came from ...and I quite like it.  Anybody got a clue?  There was no reference to it on the advertising card itself.

It's from the Lo Scarabeo Tarot deck 🙂

It was to celebrate their 20th anniversary of publishing and combines all three major traditions - the Tarot de Marseilles, the Rider-Waite and the Thoth.

It seems to be a little OOP these days.

Thanks!  🙂  I might make an attempt to find it second hand ...maybe on eBay?

There are some floating around Amazon UK, new and used -

It's only 25 euros direct from them - that way you will be sure it isn't a knock off - some of the ones on amazon and ebay are....

Chariot is in Scotland, I believe - if you are outside the US, most places are refusing to sell anything outside their country because of the microwhatsits thing. And the fees you have to pay when stuff hits the UK are appalling.

 

Blackwells have it:

Thanks, folks.  I did just find a copy for sale (used)  here in the UK ...so have ordered it.  🙂  You're right, @gregory, about the shipping charges to and from the USA.  I won't touch that with a barge pole just now.

 

The teller at our local post office—who knows I used to post packages to friends and family in the USA—warned me only last week.  I was in to post a birthday package to somebody here in the UK. She told me to be braced for the charges, if I want to send packages overseas any more.  She said 'A lady was in here yesterday, posting a small gift package to the USA.  Our charges for sending the package would have been just over £18.  However, with the Trump tariff/tax charges now added, the price was £55."  (That's pounds, not dollars.)

Erm ...no.

I read somewhere that Royal Mail wasn't accepting packages for the US at the moment - is that all over ? (Wait - yes, I see we were the first country to restart them. Including all those excessive fees.)

 

But gifts CAN still work out. Not that I'd risk it.

Let's keep this thread to discussing the Lo Scarabeo Tarot deck. I will start a new discussion about tariffs and decks because sadly it's going to increase the price of them, probably most of them ultimately 😞
