Vintage Oswald Wirth Tarot (1973) – Complete Tchou Set with Book – Extremely Rare

A vintage 1973 deluxe set combining Oswald Wirth’s iconic Tarot (embellished with gold) and Pierre Berloquin’s authoritative book Règles du Jeu de Tarot. Published by Éditions Tchou, this set offers both a playable deck and a richly documented exploration of the history, rules, and variations of French tarot.

The two yellow card cases contain the full 78-card Wirth deck, beautifully printed and in excellent condition. The accompanying hard-covered book provides historical context, gameplay structure, and multiple variations, making this an exceptional collectible for tarot lovers, historians, and players.

This 1973 edition is now long out of print and extremely difficult to find complete — especially with the book and both yellow cases present.
