Tarot de Paris – 1985 Edition (André Dimanche / Grimaud) - The Anonymous Tarot de Paris

This is a rare facsimile reproduction of the Tarot de Paris, one of the earliest known complete tarot decks, originally created between 1600 and 1650. Published in 1985 by André Dimanche in collaboration with Société Le Jeu de Marseille, with cards manufactured by Grimaud, this edition faithfully preserves the original deck held in the Bibliothèque Nationale de Paris.

Each card carries the discreet “BN” stamp (Bibliothèque Nationale) and features the original black line woodcut illustrations with hand-stenciled coloring in vibrant red, mustard yellow, green, blues, browns, and pinks. Unlike later reproductions, no linework has been retouched or modernized, keeping the authentic early 17th-century style intact. Printed on thick, cream-colored cardstock with a semi-gloss finish.

The Tarot of Paris predates the Conver Tarot de Marseille (c.1760) by as much as 150 years, making it a historically significant piece in the evolution of tarot imagery and symbolism.
