Maskelyne, Jasper. Magic Top Secret. London, ca. 1948. Publisher's cloth, illustrated. 8vo. Cloth rubbed and light foxing to several pages, but overall good condition. This, Jasper Maskelyne's first-person (and arguably highly fictionalized) account of how he used the techniques of magicians to outwit Nazi forces while a member of the Royal Military is, despite its release by a trade publisher of some standing, uncommon.
