Description

This is an Asian tarot set, consisting of 22 major arcana cards + 2 blank cards, packaged with a softcover guide book in a cardboard folder/shelf box with a velcro closure. 

The cards are narraower than average and rectangular in shape, measuring 12.2 cm tall x 5.1 cm wide. The card stock is very flexible, with a glossy coating.

This is a majors-only reprint of the Rider-Waite-Smith, with English-language titles and roman numerals in addition to what I believe are Chinese titles and/or numbers.

The card back design is reversible.

Note: All of the information regarding the origin, date, and title of this deck have come from Google Translate results. I have not found a definitive English-language version of the deck's title: translations have included "Subversion Tarot Graphic Crash" as well as "Subversion Tarot Illustrated Crash" and "Top Over Tarot." For simplicity's sake, I'm entering this as simply the Subversion Tarot, as that was the most consistently-returned translation.

The name Zou Dacheng came up in Google Translate's results, as well, but I could not be certain if this name refers to a place, a publisher, or to an artist/author.
