London, Harry Stanley, Undated. Black red over boards with gilt title to spine, Size Approx 6.25" x 9.5", 128pp. In nice condition overall, boards have some light bumping, wear and scuffing. Pages are clean and binding is solid. Dj is unclipped and in decent shape with some wear to edges, corners and spine along with some light smudging.
Very nice and very well explained classical magic effects by Peter Warlock, illustrated with drawings.
Another intriguing collectible from the personal library of Magician and bibliophile, Jay Marshall.
