The Banned Books Tarot Deck by Galison

 

Earlier this month, I stumbled across The Banned Books Tarot Deck by Galison on Amazon. 

I love reading banned books. I also have a growing interest in tarot decks and learning to read tarot cards.

After a short deliberation, I decided to purchase The Banned Books Tarot Deck for myself based on my personal interests. Additionally, The Banned Books Tarot Deck was 50% off on Amazon with an additional coupon for more money off, which only made buying this deck that much sweeter.

So, what do I think of The Banned Books Tarot Deck by Galison? I am impressed with the fact that this deck comes in a hard box with magnetic closure vs the typical tuck box. This way the deck is more protected over the long haul by being stored inside a sturdy box. 

This deck also comes with a nice booklet that is way more informative than the standard 'Little White Book' (aka pamphlet) that normally comes with a tarot deck in a tuck box.

The Banned Books Tarot Deck is the standard tarot card size. It has a glossy finish and the card stock is decent. The cardstock isn't thick or thin, but has a middle of the road thickness. I love the designs on both the front and the back of each card in this tarot deck. 

My only complaint I have regarding The Banned Books Tarot Deck is that quite a few banned books are duplicated throughout the deck itself. I'm sure there are more than 78 banned books that exist. So, why not have a different banned book for each individual tarot card?

Below is a video I found on YouTube of a silent flip through for The Banned Books Tarot Deck. Check out the video if you're interesting to see what the entire deck looks like.

I am giving The Banned Books Tarot Deck by Galison a rating of 4 stars out of 5 stars.

Until my next post, happy reading!!
