Excerpt from the introduction:
It would not be out of place for me to here add what Mr. Louis C. Haley (author of that fine book The Dramatic Art of Magic) pointed out re the effects in Original Mysteries, as the same remarks apply to every effect in this present work, that the whole of the apparatus used for obtaining the effects could be made up at home.
