Select Secrets
From J.N. Maskelyne's toolbox to rare Houdiniana (posters, handcuffs, autographs), David Devant's passport to a magic trick that helped predict the outbreak of WWII, Robert Harbin's sketch for the Zig-Zag Girl and Al Delage's Sub Trunk, our December sale of magicana is a closely-curated offering of real rarities. A select number of lots, many from the careers of real "heroes of magic," will cross the block on auction day, most of them for the first time.
