FASOLA, Gustave (Fergus Greenwood). Fasola ALS to Maurice Raymond Regarding the Golem Illusion. Dated March 14, 1923, Fasola writes to his fellow performer, ?I have been over in Germany. I bought the Golem illusion. This is a figure of a head on a square cabinet with clockwork in front of Cabinet?you tell the story? . This is the only thing they had and they have sold 2 for England so not much good for there. Things in general are rotten in France. Hope you are having a good time and making plenty of money.? One sheet of Fasola?s letterhead, with old folds and soiling. Signed ?G. Fasola.? Scarce. Fasola tried his hand as a stage magician and illusionist, as well as building magic, but his career was plagued by mishaps and ill fortune.
