Billed as "Master of Mystery". Semi-pro card, mental, and thimble magic for clubs, colleges, and hotels. A teacher by profession was a magician from Morristown, New Jersey. Served 41 months in the US Army Signal Corps.

Wrote Exciting Experiments in E.S.P. (1970, 76pp). Tricks in Genii, Magick, and Jinx.

A fascinating sleight-of-hand trick anyone can perform.

Here is a clever routine of real sleight-of-hand which can be performed "right under their noses" without years of tedious practice, without special equipment, and without mechanical aids. No trick thimbles are necessary and you can perform at any time and anywhere — before a large group or across the dinner table. Whether you’re seven or seventy, you’ll enjoy fooling people with this real "magic".

42 actual photographs of a professional magician's hands in action and full written descriptions show and tell you everything...

Four pages of instructions in one big folded sheet. Note that the folds have torn in several places. For the content see the digital edition.
