The Unemployed Philosophers Guild - The Pulp Tarot Deck

$24.95

Tarot decks were 15th century playing cards—later tools for divination. Pulp magazines peaked with Depression-era longing for escapism—living on modern forms and genres. Both Pulp and Tarot are sources of stories that stir primal responses—love and bravery, fear and happiness, suspense and surprise—to give us a chance to reimagine ourselves. The Pulp Tarot recasts the tarot deck with characters from the history of pulp illustration. Each member of this new ensemble brings a fresh POV and unexpected insight. What thrilling sense of discovery will this unique collection bring to your narrative? Boxed set is bookshelf-worthy and includes 78 sensational cards plus a fast-paced instruction book that describes every card in dramatic detail!
