Tarot sleeve fit
The Rider-Waite catalogue size, 69.85 × 120.65 mm, is 0.65 mm taller than Ultra Pro’s tarot sleeve limit of 70 × 120 mm. That deck falls outside the published fit statement. The PrintNinja cut, 70 × 120 mm, matches the supported card size.Measure your deck before buying a tarot-class sleeve. The product name alone does not establish fit.
Named decks and printer cuts
The Rider-Waite catalogue size belongs to the cited U.S. Games Systems edition. Pocket, miniature and other editions need their own dimensions.
The second entry, 70 × 120 mm, is PrintNinja’s tarot cut. For a custom deck, choose the print provider first and use its finished-cut, bleed and safe-area template.
Questions
How much bigger is a tarot card than a playing card?
The cited Rider-Waite deck is 6.35 × 31.75 mm (0.25 × 1.25 in) larger than a Copag poker card. Poker sleeves do not cover that footprint.
Do labels like standard, pocket and mini give the size?
No. Check the dimensions of the specific deck. For a box, measure the completed deck with any sleeves: its depth depends on card count, stock and finish, not just the width and height shown here.
