SOCIETY OF AMERICAN MAGICIANS PRESENTATION WAND. [New York,...

Item Details

Description

SOCIETY OF AMERICAN MAGICIANS PRESENTATION WAND. [New York, ca. 1905]. Ebony wand encircled by a nickel-plated serpent and capped with nickel-plated tips terminating on each end in the head and tail of a 1902 Indian head penny. Length 14 ¼”. Finely crafted. From the collection of John McManus. The Society of American Magicians, the world’s first organized magic club, was founded in New York in 1902, in the back room of Martinka’s Magic Shop at 493 6th Avenue. The Society’s seal featured a serpent wrapped around the initials of the organization. While no engraving or hallmark indicates the attribution of this wand to the S.A.M., the elements of its design strongly suggest its association.
