It is the early Weiser edition which many consider to be the first color edition of the Crowley deck, printed from 1969 to 1975. Though some claim that the early Llewelyn deck was first, but I myself have seen no definitive documentation to that effect. The comparison chart at Tarot Garden clearly supports the widely held view that the Weiser deck was first, though the Encylopedia of Tarot reference they cite, The Encyclopedia of Tarot, vol. III, p. 152,  is less than clear see: http://www.tarotgarden.com/library/decks/thothtable.php. In any event, this particular sample of what either way is one of the earliest color printings of the deck conceptualized by Aleister Crowley and illustrated by Frieda Harris, has a soiled box, but the 78 major and minor arcana, as well as the OTO title card, are in excellent condition and appear to have never or rarely been used. Packaged in the white slipcase with gold colored sleeve, the box has small water (or some other liquid, coffee?) spots, but otherwise is in very good condition with no tears or crushed corners.On Aug-30-08 at 10:06:12 PDT, seller added the following information:Seller's Additional Note: Looking at the box this morning, I see that a couple of the corners are pressed in a little bit, though I still don't think I would call them "crushed." --Just want to be very clear about the condition of a used item like this.
