Description
Selbit, P.T. The Selbit Mystery Souvenir Program. England, ca. 1909. Early illustrated souvenir booklet published to coincide with Selbit’s performance of what has come to be known as the Million Dollar Mystery. Four full-page photographs. Oblong 8vo. One inked note inside, else good. Uncommon.Invented by Walter Ceretta Jeans, the illusion now commonly known as the Million Dollar Mystery was here presented by Selbit as a demonstration of “Spiritualism’s Greatest Wonders” at center stage, in an apparently innocent box resting on spindly legs. The booklet outlines the entire routine, from the appearance of flowers and ghostly music emanating from the cabinet, to the final production of a live woman from its interior.
