Post updated on a kind of regular basis...

This thread is wrongly titled "not a collection" since I reluctantly admitted to be a collector, it is not an eclectic collection as you won't (or barely) find listed here modern decks, being pretty much targeted to those reproductions of very vintage decks - with a few exceptions. Quite short compared to this forum standards, this makes way too much decks for someone who wishes to argue he is not a collector, this thread also helps me keep track of my collection.

List updated as of september 7th 2012 (in bold : my dream fulfilled collection)
+Tarot de Paris anonyme XVIIth / André Dimanche-Grimaud 1984
+Tarot de Jacques Viéville / Heron 1984
+Tarot de Jean Noblet / Industrial version by JC-Flornoy with the completed swords serie
+Tarot de Jean Dodal / Dusserre (normal hermine pattern backs) from Bibliothèque Nationale originals
+Tarot de Jean Payen 1743 / Museo Fournier 2004 !
+Tarot de Jean-Payen, "El Tarot O la Maquina de Imaginar" (accompanying book title) / poker sized 5.7x8.8cm cards with standard playing cards back - trumps only reproduction, "barral editors" on the box and title card, printed by Fournier.
+Tarot de Jean-Payen / same as above without the title card, the original box and the printer informations.

+Ancient Minchiate Etruria (partial : no box, no LWB, only complete serie of 41 trumps + a few from spade and bastones) / Lo Scarabeo 2001 (?)
+I Tarocchini Giuseppe Maria Mitelli / Grafica Gutenberg (~ 1978 ?)
+Etteilla, type I, beat up and no box, pretty vintage and used- from late XIXth to at least pre-1950 in my opinion.

+Grand Etteilla (type I)/Grimaud (1980's print with french and english titles)
+Langage Secret du Tarot, Marseille Tarot / 22 trumps designed by Hélène Floret, accompanying the book by Simon & Picard, Tchou 2003 (kind of a redrawn Grimaud)

bumping to reflect today's new arrivals (Paul Marteau/Dusserre and Balbi)
Since this list grew from five decks to nearly twenty today, the title is really no longer appropriate - but I can't seem to find how to edit it !
Maybe it's time for a sale or some trading too...

Today's update :
added a small set of the Jean Payen trumps on regular sized cards, with very modern backs, editor unknown (bad picture below, sorry only my cell phone available at the moment to take it) ; more decks moved to the bottom "no longer in the collection" list.

Hello Debra !

Do you own only the trumps or does a complete set including pips and honors exist ?

Debra,
Pablo Robledo (eltarot78 at Aeclectic forum) told me that it might be a deck of 22 cards only accompanying the following book :
http://www.librosaulamagna.com/libro/EL-TAROT-O-LA-MAQUINA-DE-IMAGINAR/6887/3339

Thanks Yves ;)

new addition today, really out of the usual topic :
a RWS deck, a modest Pam-D !

I couldn't resist... but I believe it was quite cheap compared to the usual prices (though I'd like to know better) in faire state, no box, only wrapped in a (now unglued) rectangular piece of paper around the cards.
As the other Pam-D the trimming is aproximative, yet it has its charm ! I probably won't keep it a long time mine as my beloved one will probably get ahold of it.

paradoxically, this one is actually the oldest deck I own ! And I reckon, with this vintage touch, this deck is quite appealing !

Bertrand

forgotten addition from a few days ago : a nice but beat up Etteilla, quite vintage although I'm really not sure about the date. It has been used and abused and seems at least pre-1950 - but I wouldn't swear.
forgotten to add the cute mini spanish tarot.

Today's arrivals

+Venetian Tarot Cards "Milano", Italy XVIIIth / Fournier 2004
+Tarot del Libro de Thoth (Etteilla III) / Lo Scarabeo 2006, spanish box
plus a third copy of the full Payen deck, and books : Kaplan encyclopedia I - 1979 print, R.Cavendish 1975 "The Tarot"

:ce
edit : forgot a previous arrival, a third "mini payen", the same as pictured above, without box and title card but with the original book "el tarot o la maquina de imaginar", which I read but found a bit disappointing, I expected much better since that nice deck accompanied it. The first "small payen" copy was then offered to a shaman friend to whom I did a reading with said deck.
Also forgot to mention the Pam-D now belongs to my loved one.
And a second grafica gutenberg Mitelli is in the mail and hopefully should arrive soon.

added today - flea market finds :
AGM Royal Fez Moroccan, cheap and still wrapped in plastic - although the box shows some wear. I got it cheap, but I feel the urge to open it, and I don't know how much it is worth...
Tarot Oriental de Paul Iki, without the coins that are suppposed to come with the deck.

Tactics ogre received yesterday.
I believed it was definitely not my type of decks and yet I'm very impressed - excellent choice for the backs and the art, printing, etc.. are actually extremely good.

I Tarrocchi Dei Visconti by Monumenta Longobardica/Grafica Gutemberg
a wonder although the cardstock is a bit light, the book-like box is magnificent.

Forgot to add at the beginning of the summer :
"I Veri Tarocchi", an italian weirdness.
It's a 1JJ actually, but cards titles on the trumps have been translated to italian and are written at the top of the card (save for "il matto") while numbers are at the top, Junon is titled "la papessa" just like Jupiter is titled "il papa", titles have been completely removed on court cards and the back is the editor's name (lito-rama edizione) patterned in dark grey over lighter gray.
Also the cards are printed like Dusserre's "jeu de la princesse tarot", plastic laminated feel on the faces and mat rough cardboard on the backs.

Hi Bertrand, the Tarocco Gumppenberg 1840/De Vecchi that you have is from "I vecchi tarocchi italiani di Gumppenberg di Isa Donelli"? I'm asking because I found this book pre-owned in a very good price, but...I'm not sure about the cards quality. :?
I had a bad experience with Tuan's Dotti!
