KALANAG (Helmut Schreiber, 1903 ? 63). Collection of Kalanag Press Photos. Circa 1956. Group of 28 black-and-white images with scenes from Kalanag?s illusion show, as well as staged studio images with his co-stars, headshots of his wife and onstage partner Gloria De Vos, and images of the dancers that were integral to his production. Includes photos of the Vanishing Lamp, Dizzy Limit, Gloria?s phone book stunt, a hospital scene, and other tricks. Many images are accompanied by captions from a Kalanag press, describing each image. All 8 x 10? and most in very good to near fine condition. These photos were issued to coincide with Kalanag?s 1957 North American Tour, which lasted for only a short time and was occasionally interrupted by protests due to the magician?s association with the Third Reich.
