In the half card on the Cary Yale sheet...thought to be Strength.
The figure has 'billowing hair" (Kaplan) No hat of any sort- not even half a hat.
The left arm reaches down to the Lion's mouth but what interests me, and I do not know if has been discussed before but on the shoulder appears to be armour not a rolled sleeve. It is distincly different from any Tarot de Marseille style-the sleeve top is very reminscent of the armour on the Sola - Busca Tarocchi Cards 1, 11, 1111 (Mario) for example.
It is not at all like the women's sleeves on the remainder Cary-Yale.

If some one could post it here that would be great.
