Latter day tricks
Latter Day Tricks is a late nineteenth-century magic handbook by A. Roterberg, published by the author around 1896, probably in Chicago, and aimed at amateur and professional conjurers. The two pictures are a Library of Congress seal of an eagle above a ring lettered with 1800 and a New York magic dealer's advertisement with a caped magician beside a dragon-like creature, giving a designer a clear example of period advertising typography and a dramatic figure pose.
