This was the first tarot deck published for the mass market featuring the tarot images as described by the esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn. Illustrated by Robert Wang, under the direction of Israel Regardie, the style of the artwork is a bit unaccomplished compared to some (though not all) Golden-Dawn wannabees that have come after it. The deck arguably remains, however, one of the most influential tarots of the late 20th-century -- providing a viable alternative to the Waite-Smith and Crowley-Harris decks.
