The [[Category:Lillian Vernon|Lillian Vernon Fortune Teller's Cup and Saucer set is identical to the Zarka set except for its packaging and the form of its 24 page [[Category:Tea Leaf Reading Instruction Sheets and Booklets|instruction sheets, which was printed on cream-coloured paper in brown ink. Lillian Vernon sold her products via a catalogue, and selected items were offered for sale through supermarket tabloids and women's magazines for about ten years, after which manufacture ceased. This set is clearly identified on the backstamp of the saucer, but the quickest way to distinguish it from others of its type is to note that the lettering of the signs of the zodiac is in green and there are significant art and colour differences from its forerunners. Especially notable is the appearance of the crab that represents the sign Cancer.
