Original 1909 Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot Deck | Classic 78-Card Set

The deck that defined modern tarot. First published in 1909, the Rider-Waite-Smith deck set the standard nearly every tarot deck since has built on — full-scene illustrations for every card, not just the Major Arcana.

Illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith under the direction of A.E. Waite, this is the deck most readers learn on first, and the one most tarot books and courses reference by default.

Why readers choose the RWS deck:

• The most widely recognized tarot imagery in the world — ideal for beginners

• Every card (not just Major Arcana) shows a full illustrated scene, making intuitive reading easier

• The reference point for nearly all modern tarot decks and study materials

• Sold by House of Grey, a practicing tarot reader and educator

  
  

Best for: beginners, students, and anyone wanting the deck every tarot book assumes you own.
