Nice selection. Besides what you see pretty often, that Corona set is dope. The box looks pretty well made for an advertising deck set.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

Nice. I am going to have to look up the Jeu de Cartes de Tahiti deck. I don't have that one. I agree, the Corona set is dope!

I love the Tahitian Deck. I'll post some pics of it later.

It didn't come with a tuck case, just this flimsy plastic shell case.

It came with these two front and back cards. Does anyone here know what they are called?

While scrolling through the Tahiti deck pictures, the first thought that went through my head as the jokers moved by was .... I didn't know Homer Simpson was Tahitian! πŸ˜‚

I think it's just the most current version. I ordered it from their giftshop a couple of months ago. I believe the gaff cards are different.

Not one but two Fiona decks. That girl sure is popular.

Hey Nessigator, Where can I find the Tahitian deck? Those look great and I am after decks that are different in terms of the standard King, Queen, Jack and have unique region specific pips for the court cards and also rest of the cards if there are any as such. Thanks!

I would suggest checking ebay from time to time and I am sure some good ones will come up. A quick look see did turn up one for sale, but it seems way too much for my interest. However...below is the li

Feltrin also did a tarot version of 'Tahiti' (World Web Playing Cards Museum) in at least two editions. Looks like probably same artwork where appropriate (I only checked D❀), different colors and back. I think the back on yours is better ;)

P.S. I was glad to see someone else collecting not-so serious decks like the Nickolodeons, and the Narwhal. How many cards does that Spanish deck have?
edit: Oh! Adding Carne Griffith decks to my wishlist.

Sorry it took so long to respond. I just searched "Tahitian playing cards" eBay and found them. I paid right at $20.00 with shipping.
