Quality MagicOkitoFrom the Foreword: This is my first book on Magic, and it will probably be my last, because its contents are the result of my life’s work. All the sleights and tricks explained in this book have been worked by me; therefore I know they are practical. One often hears of tricks which seem to be very good theoretically, but which turn out to be anything but good when one tests them by a private rehearsal.

Magic in the Modern MannerOrville Wayne MeyerThis is a work most will not be familiar with. Many will dismiss it with 'another old magic book'. But those in the know have carefully studied it and hold it dear as one of the most valuable books for a working professional magician. It is the original and the only one of four places where Annemann's bullet catch is described, because it was Orville Meyer who supplied Annemann with the method. All the three other places where this is described are out of print and hard to impossible to find. And now this lost Orville Meyer gem has been made even more valuable by extensive annotations and a new... | ★★★★★ $50 to wish list | |
Wizardry with WatchesOswald RaeFrom the foreword: Watches have always played a certain part in Magic, but the watch was usually a borrowed one. The excellent "prop" watches now on the market, manufactured of course exclusively for conjuring purposes, open up almost a new era in watch magic. Having acquired some of these, I endeavoured to work out some effects therewith, and thinking that some of my ideas may be of service to my fellow magicians, I have put them into print. With the exception of those described under "Some Suggestions" all the effects have been actually worked, and the various stands described are easily... | $4 to wish list | |
Illustrated MagicOttokar FischerThis is a magnificent magic ebook. Some put it among the top 10 or even the top 3 magic books ever written.

The Magician's HandbookP. T. SelbitThe inventor of "sawing a lady in half" has written quite an interesting book. It covers a good range of topics. Particularly the inclusion of fringe fields to magic, such as juggling and black art, makes this book unique. Certainly this is mainly a magic book, so tricks with handkerchiefs, and balls are many to be found as well as several interesting illusions. This book is in one other respect quite different to other books. The table of contents is in alphabetical order. So Selbit has kind of combined contents and index - interesting. 1st edition, 1901, Marshall & Brookes, London; 188... | ★★★★★ $4 to wish list | |
The Magical EntertainerP. T.

We believe it is necessary for magic to be given to the public more as an amusing entertainment... | $5 to wish list | |
