Product Description
You've never seen tarot cards like these before. Imagine the celebrated "Ryder Deck" infused with the spirit of Leave It to Beaver, and the result is The Housewives Tarot -- a dazzling retro interpretation of a classic divination system.
With illustrations of martini glasses (cups), mops and brooms (wands), Duncan Hines chocolate cake (the Devil), wood-paneled station wagons (the Chariot), bathroom scales (Judgment), and other 1950s iconography, these tarot cards can answer all of life's most challenging questions. The enclosed instruction book shows you how to interpret all 78 cards -- and describes how to assemble them using five different layouts: the Virgin Spread, the Neapolitan Spread, the Clothesline Spread, the Dinette Spread, and the Martini Spread.
The secrets of The Housewives Tarot await you!

Love This!
Not only are my best friend and I into reading tarot cards, but we also have a battle as to who can find kitchy items from the '30's and '40's. I won with this. This set is so uniquely illustrated, the descriptions of each card are hilarious, and it makes understanding tarot so easy.
Lovely...My favourite pack ever ^_^
It came last monday, my goodness It is all I was expecting the box is so lovely that I am always opening and closing it.
The quality of the cards is not that good but I love the pack anyway.
Fun
I saw this at a friend's house and decided to get my own deck. I don't believe in Tarot, but I do believe in corny retro clip art. I was not disappointed. Its cute and its fun and it actually matches some of the things I've heard about tarot cards in terms of interpretation. One of these days, I'll get some gal pal friends to come over, have martinis and have fun reading the cards.
