Yes I am illuminating a series of period Italian Tarot (Tarocchi) cards
for an SCA A and S competition. And during my desperate and harrowing
search for documentation I have found that by and far " The Encyclopedia
ofTarot" by Stuart Kaplan to be very informative and correct. If you'd
like I could mail you my documentation. Don't worry it's short. Or for
more info I can give you specific details from the book, because I don't
knowyour area of intrest.

Sincerly, Scia
