[Buchinger, Matthias] Grave, Robert. Engraved portrait of Matthew Buchinger. London, 1819. Fine full-length image of the ?little man of Nuremburg? inside a framed medallion, his name below the image. Buchinger performed magic tricks, among other dexterous feats, despite the fact that he had no legs or arms, and was memorialized in a book by Ricky Jay. Ragged right edge; removed from a larger volume. Else very good.
