With full pictorial scenes on every card of the Major and Minor Arcana, Rider-Waite Tarot set the standard for hundreds of other tarot decks around the world. First created in 1909 by Pamela Colman Smith, under the direction of Arthur Edward Waite, the vibrant drawings of Rider-Waite Tarot hold timeless appeal. The deck’s enduring popularity stems from the universality of the symbolism captured in every card of the 78-card deck. Pocket Rider-Waite Tarot includes an instruction booklet with upright and reversed meanings, keywords, and an introduction by tarot expert, Stuart R. Kaplan. This is a deck that is beloved by tarot beginners and experienced readers alike. Rider-Waite Tarot belongs in every tarot collection. Rider-Waite Tarot was named one of the Top Ten Tarot Decks of All Time by Aeclectic Tarot.

Good size but not good quality
The size of these cards are perfect for my small hands but I was really disappointed in the quality. After just the first shuffle the card edges started to split. I'm actually thinking about laminating the cards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pocket Edition (bridge size)
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2021

This is the pocket edition, the cards are playing card size, made in China and are excellent quality. Copyright is longer than usual but they use lighter colored ink so it’s almost unnoticeable, The Magician card is the only card with made in China on the left side of the card lighter colored ink used. The card stock is good a little stiff, hard to riffle shuffle if that’s the way you like to shuffle, the colors are good on the cards all though the flesh tones vary, multi cultural I like it. Pam’s original font is used on this deck There were no defects with this deck every card was perfect, I love this deck. I bought a second deck and I’m ready to purchase a third and I just did, the reviews and pictures you see are not about this deck, this deck is made in China not Italy, it’s pocket size not standard size somehow the reviews get mixed together making it hard for you to decide whether to buy or not. The Chinese make excellent cards and this deck will be sort after when it’s OOP, I would highly recommend this deck for purchase before it’s gone you won’t regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect fit for my hands
Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2009

I like the classic look of the Rider Waite Tarot cards, and have used them for a good long time now. I've used them so much that my Last deck (the third I have ever owned) has finally self destructed on me after about 3 years of constant use and some bit of rather rough handling.

My one complaint of the Rider Waite deck, has always been that they are just too large for an average person hands. I have some big hands. but they are just muscular, my fingers are about the average length and all.

I can handle a poker sized deck of card with ease and it feels comfortable dealing with a deck more of that size. Even 104 cards are easy in my hand and I doubt anyone else have a difficult time with that task unless they have really tiny hands.

So when I saw one of my friends deck of Pocket Rider Waite Tarot, I knew I just had to have a deck of these once my own deck fell apart, Which recently they have.

These cards are actually not poker card sized (3.5" x 2.5") across the board. To retain pretty much the same ratio of a full sized Rider Waite Tarot Card, they are Bridge sized instead (3.5" x 2.25") which are about a quarter of an inch more narrow then Poker sized card. For many smaller hands this makes a difference if the comfort of handling.

Many casinos use bridge sized card for all their card based games for this reason.

Why does all this make a difference? Well it really doesn't. they are still Smaller but retaining all of the Classic Artwork of the Original Rider Waite Tarot cards. Nothing is change here other then the over all size of the cards.

I have ordered my own deck, but have yet to receive them. I plan on seeing them tomorrow or the next day. I have however seen and used this particular deck enough to review them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Those Of Us With Hand Issues

After buying a larger vividly-colored version of the Rider Waite deck, I found I couldn't easily shuffle or even handle the cards. I have arthritis in both hands and the card stock was just too sturdy. But this little set is perfect. The same size and flexibility as regular playing cards & very easy to shuffle. The smaller card size also means larger spreads take less room to lay out, a real help when space is limited.

5.0 out of 5 stars Playing card size, not oversized
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2021
Verified Purchase
I purposely bought this deck because I was looking for something small, the same size as a deck of playing cards. Keep that in mind if you will be doing readings with other people at a big table. This is not the oversized version you see in movies or on tv, but it is a perfect size to travel with, throw in your pocket, etc.

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2021

I love this deck. It is about the size of a regular card deck, just a drop narrower.
Images are beautiful, and it is a great size.
I have the miniature and regular size RWS, and this one perfectly completes my collection. 💜💜💜
This deck is nicer than the regular size deck!!!!! The colors are great and the faces are smooth and cleaned up. I don't know why they can't make a regular size deck as nice as this?

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational Tarot Cards
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2011

I found the Rider-Waite pocket tarot deck to be the perfect cards for me. The size is just right for my small hands, making them easy to shuffle and even possible to select cards from fanning them.

The scenes are drawn and colored beautifully on the Major Arcana, as well as the Minor Arcana, instantly offering me personal, intuitive interpretation without prior reference to written meanings. In this way, I felt I made them my own.

The instructional booklet with the deck offered an interpretation for each card, sometimes agreeing with mine, sometimes not. Since I looked over all the cards before reading the booklet, I was able to decide which interpretation felt more right to me. The booklet gave much more information including spreads, a tarot history and information on the art of divination.

For the cost, if you are interested in learning about Tarot, you cannot find a better deal or a better deck.

 I am SO happy to have purchased this deck USED and paid less. Delivery was quicker then expected.
The box was a bit roughed up but the cards were in mint condition. A great deal if you don't mind used cards which were returned for a reason. This is not the first time I bought used and all experiences on Amazon are amazing.
I will be using this deck for personal use and YouTube videos.
Card stock just like regular playing cards and matte. Images are good.
Don't miss out.
