WHAT"S TAROT DE MARSEILLE?
 
The first modern Tarot de Marseille (TdM) that we know of was printed by Pierre Madenie of Dijon in 1709. This deck was nearly identical to its precursors, the Noblet and Dodal. In 1736, Chosson of Marseille printed what was to become the prototype for most later decks. By the mid 1700s, decks nearly identical to Chosson’s were being produced in France, Belgium and Switzerland. Chosson’s deck became the mother of all contemporary TdM’s in 1760 when Nicolas Conver of Marseille copied a Chosson deck directly onto his wood blocks.
