A cartomancy manual by Olney H. Richmond, published in Chicago in 1919, teaching readers to read playing cards as astrological emblems. Its plates are grids and spreads of small woodcut-style card faces, with blocky pip clusters and crudely engraved court figures printed in black on tinted paper, useful as ready-made card icons, layout grids, and pattern fills.
