§ Émile Reynaud's Praxinoscope Tarot (3.5M) ^

§ About ^

I came across this collection of early animations by Émile Reynaud and quickly noticed two things:

1. They're very pretty and whimsical and resemble fortune-telling cards.
2. There are 23 of them... and you only need 22 for the tarot trumps ("Major Arcana").

So, yeah. I assigned one animation to each card and added some text and stuff. I also added a card backing taken from the same source.

Anyway, go check out Margot McEwen's awesome website.
