Ross, Faucett. Archive of 18 letters and fragments from Faucett Ross to Cardini. Dating from 1931 – 64, the letters, including one TLS and 17 ALSs, begin with Ross’ first missive to Cardini – essentially a letter of introduction, and outline a growing and deepening friendship between the two men. Topics covered include both gossip, their mutual friends (Dai Vernon among others) and the working of various tricks and routines. Ross includes small drawings of effects in his notes, and describes other salient points. Most on plain 4to sheets, some with original mailing covers. Condition very good overall; should be seen. An important archive.
