Tarbell, Harlan. Coming in Person! Tarbell. Chicago, Globe Poster Corp., ca. 1945. Three-color offset window card (14 x 22") bearing two images of Tarbell. In one he performs Eyeless Vision, and in the other the Hindu Rope Mystery. Good condition. Tarbell is today best known as a writer, illustrator and teacher of magic, but during his lifetime, made a comfortable living performing for civic groups, colleges and other private organizations. This window card is overprinted for Tarbell's appearance at the Chicago Opera House, one of the few public theater shows he ever gave.
