Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Louis Tannen, New York City. 1968. 424 pages. First American hardcover edition; first printing. Near fine. Green cloth stamped in gold. Lone Tannen rabbit in hat insignia with magic wand stamped on base of spine. Binding and hinges are strong and sound. Four sharp corners. Pages lay…tight. Only the first two U.S. printings used green cloth, before changing to black, before reprint publishers purchased the publication rights. Book's lone flaw is light toning to endpapers. Unique illusionist bookplate on front endpaper. Loosely laid-in is a membership certificate for the international fan club for the most commercially successful illusionist and stage magician, David Copperfield. This book is considered the quintessential guide book for mentalists. Corinda details the workings of nearly every useful strategy and device to aid the mentalist. Some of these include Nail writers, predictions, card tricks, blindfold tricks, muscle reading, billets, publicity stunts, etc. The volume goes on to describe various techniques used by mentalists to achieve what appear to be psychic phenomena such as telepathy, precognition, extra-sensory perception, telekinesis and the ability to communicate with the dead as a medium. Mentalists such as Derren Brown, Larry Becker, Lee Earle, Richard Osterlind and Banachek have incorporated Corinda's Thirteen Steps to Mentalism into their own work. Uncommon first American edition, first printing. Rare.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Louis Tannen, New York City. 1968. 424 pages. First American hardcover edition; first printing. Green cloth stamped in gold. Tannen rabbit in hat insignia with magic wand stamped at base of spine. Binding and hinges are strong and sound. Four sharp c…orners. Pages lay tight. Scant faint foxing along bottom page edges. Previous owner's name neatly written on corner of FFEP. Scant, faint foxing to endpapers. Original, rare DJ with $10.00 printed price for The Complete Thirteen Steps on rear flap; blank otherwise. On base of DJ spine is the Tannen rabbit in a hat reading a book. Later-issue DJs would replace the lone rabbit in a hat reading a book with a three-rabbit profile. This too would change once the edition changed to reprint publishers, in later years; as would cloth color. Only the first two U.S. printings used green cloth, before changing to black. Original DJ is bright and attractive. Faint crease near front hinge with minimal, tiny minor chipping along bottom rear edge and spine heel. Considered the quintessential guide book for mentalists, Corinda details the workings of nearly every useful strategy and device to aid the mentalist. Some of these include Nail writers, predictions, card tricks, blindfold tricks, muscle reading, billets, publicity stunts, etc. The volume goes on to describe various techniques used by mentalists to achieve what appear to be psychic phenomena such as telepathy, precognition, extra-sensory perception, telekinesis and the ability to communicate with the dead as a medium. Mentalists such as Derren Brown, Larry Becker, Lee Earle, Richard Osterlind and Banachek have incorporated Corinda's Thirteen Steps to Mentalism into their own work. Uncommon first American edition, first printing, in original first state DJ. Rare.

Green cloth with gold titles; Tannen rabbit in hat insignia with magic wand stamped on base of cloth spine. Binding and hinges are strong and sound. Pages lay t…ight and undisturbed in seemingly unread condition. Minimal toning to endpapers. Previous owner's name neatly written on FFEP. Tiny bruise to edge of front panel. Minimal soiling to green cloth. Original, rare DJ with $10.00 printed price for The Complete Thirteen Steps on rear flap; blank otherwise. On base of DJ spine is the Tannen rabbit in a hat reading a book. Later-issue DJs would replace the rabbit in a hat reading a book with a three-rabbit profile. This too would change once the edition changed with reprint publishers in later years; as would cloth color. Only the first two U.S. printings used green cloth, then it changed to black. As for the now-classic black and white DJ illustration, the images are sharp and attractive. DJ rear shows minimal soiling to front; and flaps. Rubbing along edges, small closed tear at rear shoulder and small scuff towards bottom near spine. Laid-in is a vintage 3x5 card with a handwritten note in pencil: Lou Tannen - 120 West 42nd St. NYC 205-0555 & Mecca Magic Studio 9 S. Harrison St. East Orange, NJ 483-4002. Considered 'the Mentalist Bible' by those in the trade. A first US hardcover edition; first printing in its original rare first issue DJ; with $10.00 price intact. Rare.
