Bio-Bibliographical Encyclopedia of Magicians

Curtain up for The Encyclopedia of Magicians by Stephan Oettermann and Sybylle Spiegel ! What a book! With its 400 pages, its large format of 28 x 20.5 cm, and its spine width of 3.5 cm, it will dominate any bookshelf.

But these are superficial details.

Also included are captivating episodes from the history of magic, the stories of world-famous magicians and skilled tricksters, and numerous references and sources for further exploration.

This combination of in-depth knowledge and entertaining anecdotes will not only delight seasoned magic fans, but also captivate absolute novices. You're sure to recognize many acquaintances and friends in this encyclopedia... or perhaps even come across your own name! The book has a print run of only 500 copies.
