I purchased these last night from a local shop and wonder if anyone has information about this deck.  It appears to be (and pardon my poor translation) a German printing of a Czech Lenormand design "used by the well-known fortune teller, Mrs Jackson-Ermantraut."  (from the LWB which is really a set of LW folded papers in 4 languages).  The images were so different for a Lenormand style deck that I could not resist (my apologies to the purists who do not care for Oracle decks!).

Anything you can tell me about this deck would be great.  Thanks!

It is Vykladaci Karty by Vladimir Tesar. According to TG, it was originally published in 1971 and is indeed Czech.

Just got home and checked my copy, which is also a German edition from ASS, but mine is called Orakel Set No 1717 and includes a 96 page book entirely in German. The book is copyright 1970 (which puts TG's 1971 date for the Czech version in some doubt (if we assume the Czech version came first)).

I have bought these on e-bay; they are coming on the Slow Boat from Italia.  I suspect there's no instructions, as the box looks pretty beat up.  Cards are supposedly unused.

Your box is different from mine.  When you get them, I would be interested in the number on them since apparently there are a couple of editions.  Thanks!

They are even more adorable than I'd imagined.

Here's more work by the artist:  http://www.galerie.chrudim.cz/prodej_tesar.htm
