Description
When Frank Frazetta first picked up a brush at age two, it became clear to his grandmother that his talent was beyond that of children five times his age. By eight, he had surpassed his teachers.
For over half a century, Frank Frazetta defined the art of fantasy and science fiction. His bold and thoughtful creations tell compelling stories with a single image. Now, for the first time ever, the Frazetta Art Museum has teamed up with Quimbley's Toys & Games to create a tarot card set using the famous artwork of Frank Frazetta.
Carefully curated to match the iconography of the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot, this 78 card deck features works from across Frazetta's career, including some of his most iconic characters. While many of the cards feature MATURE THEMES, the lore they imply is unsurpassed in fantasy history.
Never was there an artist more aligned with the imagery and symbolism of the tarot. Each piece of art matches the themes of its card, taking readings to a new level of profound insight and rich storytelling.
Quimbley’s and the Frazetta Museum are offering two distinct decks. Both of them are standard 2.75” x 4.75”, but it’s in the materials used that each deck stands on its own. The first is printed on metallic holographic foil, accenting Frazatta’s art in ways that have never been seen before. Each image takes on a new life, bringing visual rewards to any tarot reading. This offering includes a 6"x9" tarot guidebook with images of the original artwork next to the interpretation of their corresponding card.
Our final deck changes the game, as each card is made out of wood, fully printed and laser cut, adding weight and texture to any tarot experience.
This deck includes a custom-designed wood carrying case that opens like a book, revealing not only storage space for the deck and any other tarot accessories you enjoy, such as runes, candles, or crystals, but a space to place your cards during your readings as well.
Specially fabricated and cut, the case’s spine bends freely, belying the fact that it is made completely out of a single piece of wood. This offering includes a deluxe tarot guide with full-page images of each piece of art for your enjoyment when studying the tarot. The book itself fits comfortably into the case right along with your deck. A cloth mat, printed with the symbology of the tarot, is also included in this tier.
You can add the Frazetta Tarot box to any purchase, or our universal unbranded tarot case. The boxes themselves can hold the entire wooden deck, or three standard tarot decks of your choice. This carrying case will completely change your readings, bringing a new experience that feels connected to the earth in the tactile touch of the wood.
The Deluxe Frazetta Tarot Guide is also available separately for purchase, along with a high-quality, fully printed cloth tarot mat for readings.
While tarot is used today for a symbolic look at the universe and our individual roles in it, tarot was originally created for various types of games, and is still used for such play throughout the world. For gamers looking to enjoy the art of Frank Frazetta while playing with friends, here are a few examples of gameplay using the Frazetta Tarot:
