TWENTIETH CENTURY MAGIC
RARE. FIRST EDITION.
Classic treatise on magic effects and apparatus, many based on scientific and other principles that were new in 1898 when the book was published. These are still effects that are featured by professional magicians, although many of these ingenious tricks and methods have been overlooked during the intervening years. Profusely illustrated with clear explanations.
