Robert Houdin The Secrets of Conjuring Magic 1878. Fabulous Book.
As you can see from the pictures this book is not in perfect condition - it has been very well used. The front and back covers are worn with damage to the corners and top and bottom of the spine.
Internally some pages are loose a previous owners names are printed in the front and back.
This book is intriguing for anyone but especially those with a keen interest in magic. Full of pictures.
