Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Date is an estimate. Alternate title printed in silver on black cover: How It's Done: Cards and Coins. This booklet has appeared in several editions and forms. This one makes a concerted effort to appear as a conjuring book by adding 30 pages from one or more of Will Lindhorst's magic books to the 27 pages of formulas for roughing fluid, inks, daub, and other chemicals and powders used to doctor playing cards. NOTE: sold for historical purposes only since no doubt many of these old formulas use toxic chemicals.
