Description:
The 48 cards consist of 36 zodiacal sign cards (each zodiacal sign having three cards corresponding to the decanates), 9 star and planet cards, and one for the ascendant, the ascending node/the descending node, and the part of fortune. Printed using older chromolithography rather than colour offset which used a half tone screen and came in during the 1930s. With chromolithography the grain of the printing stone created the different shades and tones.
