The Magic of Slydini… And More. Karl Fulves. New York: Louis Tannen, 1976. Signed and inscribed to Sol Stone.
First edition in the scarce original issue bearing the title The Magic of Slydini… And More. Issued in two volumes—one containing the text and the other photographs—bound in matching black pebbled cloth stamped in gilt. Illustrated throughout.
This example is inscribed and signed by Slydini to legendary New York close-up magician Sol Stone, adding an appealing association between two highly respected figures in twentieth-century close-up magic.
Of particular collector interest, this is one of only 100 copies issued under the original title before a rights dispute with Supreme Magic Company prompted a change to The Best of Slydini… And More. As a result, copies bearing the original title were withdrawn and the book was subsequently reissued under the revised name. Very good condition. Two volumes: text and photographs.
