A unique pictorial history of stage magic from ancient times to the 1960's including photographs, lithographs, woodcuts, engravings, drawings, handbills, posters, and sketches. These illustrations - taken from Mr. Christopher's private collection of magic memorabilia - are very rare and many are unavailable elsewhere. They feature costumes, stage sets, apparatus used by performers at various times, advertisements, portraits of the leading magicians and paintings and drawings by famous artists such as Bosch, Hogarth and Breughel. A lively and informative text brings to life the careers of the magicians and their often colourful offstage antics.
