    The classic textbook on sleight of hand. Fleming 1946
    Red Cloth with Gold stamped titles and illustration
    400 pgs with illustrations
    One of the classic introductions to the art, the material runs the gamut with many interesting sleights and routines in addition to a plethora of magical wisdom.

    The Standard Textbook on how to become a magician. Sleight-of-hand feats and tricks with apparatus for amateur and professional conjurers, and for both parlor and stage performance.
    Clearly and minutely, the steps are given for hundreds of astonishing tricks: drawing room tricks with coins, common objects, cups and balls, handkerchiefs, and so on, including many fascinating card tricks-The Congenial Aces, The Traveling Cards, The Assembly, etc.; and stage magic, encompassing the more involved tricks with coins, handkerchiefs and cards, and tricks with watches and livestock, sham mesmerism and clairvoyance, the famous Cornucopian Hat, and an impressive array of miscellaneous tricks
