[Dew, Danny] Danny Dew’s Martin Card Rise. London: Jon Martin, ca. 1959. Selected cards rise one-at-a-time from the pack as it sits isolated in a glass. Faux pack finely crafted by Martin. Includes tension plate and key, the latter hallmarked by Martin; deck also hallmarked by Martin internally and externally. Working. Inside the cover plate of the “machine” (as Martin called this device), is an engraved inscription from Cardini, who fixed the prop. In Cardini’s flowing script, it reads, “Repaired for Danny Dew June 1961.” The letter Cardini wrote to Danny Dew explaining his work on this very Martin Card Rise is part of Lot 417.
