Dating probably from the 1930s, these French printed paper collectibles feature black-and-white illustrations in the Art Deco style, together with divinatory explanations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe illustrations appear on the front of the blotters, while the explanations are printed directly on the reverse in French. This is not a traditional card deck and there is no separate instruction booklet. The set consists of vintage printed paper pieces combining illustrations and explanatory texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe monogram \"HA\" visible on the illustrations is attributed to Henri Armengol, although this attribution should be treated with caution. The set provides an interesting record of the circulation of Georges Muchery's astrological and divinatory methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"titre-rubrique\"\u003eSet
