Mes garanties – Le Temple du Tarot

Elle Tarot is a divination card set published in 1964 as a supplement to the French magazine Elle. Illustrated by artist Alain Le Foll, this vintage set consists of 24 cards in French, accompanied by an explanatory notice.

Rather than a traditionally marketed card game, it is an item originating from the world of 1960s magazine publishing. The cards were cut from the original printed publication and subsequently mounted on cardboard. This piece of press ephemera may appeal to collectors of vintage divination decks, enthusiasts of French illustration and collectors of historical magazines.
