Thirteen Scrapbooks of Magic-Related Clippings. Well-organized collection of thousands of newspaper and magazine clippings related magicians and magic-related subjects, primarily in English, and spanning roughly 1910 – 1990, with the majority of the content from 1960 and earlier. Included are feature articles, photo-essays on magicians and magic conventions, and news stories related to famous and little-known magicians including Abbott’s Magic Co., Roberta & Marion, Max Maven, The Great Lester, and hundreds more. One album possibly assembled by Chris Charlton and filled with clippings related to his career, some in German. Another album focuses exclusively on Irv Weiner (“Mr. Fingers”), and another exclusively devoted to Howard Thurston. Thirteen albums of varying sizes. Contents generally in good to very good condition.
