Choice, exclusive magic in eighteen categories, the secret and presentation explained in nearly the exact words as furnished purchasers of what are now real treasures.
These instructions are from the files of GLENN GRAVATT, a long time friend of Floyd and Jennie Thayer and many of the workmen in the Thayer plant. Mr Gravatt was awarded the Literary Achievement Award in magic at the Annual Meeting of the Academy of Magical Arts and Science in March of 1980. A long time contributor to Genii, The Conjurer's Magazine, he is also well known for his many fine books on magical subjects."

The third of 4 books.
The description on book one says it all.
100's of instruction sheets from the Thayer catalogue.
Worth it's weight in gold, the only down side is that a lot of the magic is out dated and you also need to have the actual trick to make use of the instructions.
But if you want to learn about the art of magic then these books are worth having.
