Item Details
Description
JARRETT, Guy (1881 – 1972). Jarrett. Magic and Stage Craft Technical. [New York]: Author, 1936. Pale green textured cloth stamped in black. Illustrated with plates. 8vo. Presentation copy, THE FIRST BOUND COPY, signed to Morris Blum, “a collector of books on magic and conjuring literature,” by Jarrett on the title page: “Guy Jarrett/Dec. 4th/’36.” Splitting at joints, otherwise very good. The next owner of this copy, Larry Weeks (1919 – 2014), wrote about Jarrett, and this copy in particular, in the magic journal Magical Bookie (see N6, Mar. 1961): “I would like it to be known that not only are the remaining copies of his book great rarities, but the copy in my library is the rarest of this rare book, for this odd reason: when Jarrett was setting up his book right out of type, it was no extra trouble at all for him to set up one complete extra page…”
