This very unusual book explains a range of comedy skits poking fun at traditional concert party entertainments, such as conjuring, juggling, second sight, ventriloquism and many more. A very interesting book from the golden age of magic.
 
Condition: Good/very good, some wear, knocks and marks to boards, though better than most, endpapers yellowed and small area of wear and hole to back endpaper, foxing throughout. A nice copy.
