Burlingame’s Around the World with a Magician and a Juggler has become a genuine rarity. This is an important work containing the only attempts at full biographies of Professor (Hartwig) Seeman and William D’Alvini, with further scarce information on the lives and performances of Ernesto Patrizio and Bellachini, all prominent and successful magicians of their day, and now largely forgotten. Also included is Bellachini’s presentation and method for the classic Eggs from Mouth, and Dr. Max Dessoir’s seminal study on the Psychology of the Art of Conjuring.

This is a hardcover book.
