Goldston, Will. Will Goldston's Magical Scraps. London, n.d. First edition. Publisher's cloth, illustrated. Folio. Interesting subscription publication wherein subscribers received "secrets" from Goldston's "private collection" on a monthly basis for twelve months, and were expected to then mount them in this "scrapbook." Complete with 32 numbered pages of neatly mounted illustrated sheets as received. "Contents" section in the first page is blank, as the subscriber did not write in the names of the tricks received. Light discoloration to spine and soiling to cover, otherwise good condition. Tipped in is an elaborate certificate of the publisher guaranteeing that the signatures on it are genuine. These include Horace Goldin, Harry Price, G.W. Hunter, Murray, DeBierre, Douglas Dexter Arthur Sherwood, and Will Goldston.
