Fortune Telling Postcards by Bamforth
From Mystic Tea Room
Revision as of 07:14, 6 January 2021 by Catherine Yronwode (Talk | contribs)
Bamforth was a popular British publisher of comic postcards. Some of them deal with the vagaries of fortune telling, and some specifically skewer the symbology of taseeomancy or tea leaf reading.
These comic British tea leaf postcards, some signed by the artist "Taylor," were intended to be sent as greetings, but they can also be used by fledgling tasseomancers as study cups on the way to learning a basic list of tea leaf symbols.
