Downs, T. Nelson. Holographic list of T. Nelson Downs close-up tricks. Written in the great manipulative magician’s trademark handwriting on Marshalltown, Iowa Elks Home stationery. Downs offers tantalizing titles of 12 tricks, including “my improved spelling trick wherein [pack] may be freely shuffled by audience before 4 cards are drawn & all 4 spelt out no variation in spelling & no particular card forced.” Text covers most of two sides of the page, in both pencil and pen. Closed tears and chips at old folds; good.
