Also includes advise for potential magicians and a ,000 challenge to any show that could equal its success. There are around 50 simple magic tricks explained, horoscopes, an essay titled "The Truth About The Hindu Rope Trick," a letter from Howard Thurston, and many press clippings.
It is a 28-page, saddle stitched, 9x12 inch program with many photographs and illustrations. Excellent condition, retrieved from Dante's personal posetions.
