The Golden Age of Magic Posters – The Nielsen Collection Part II. chronicles the second half of what has been called the finest private collection of magic posters ever assembled, by legendary manipulative magician, Norm Nielsen.
The book includes gorgeous, full-color images of some 300 posters. Each one is complemented by detailed, historical data, as well as the stories surrounding the men and women of mystery whose rare and attractive advertisements the book showcases. Featured in its pages are stunning lithographs heralding the shows of Houdini, Chung Ling Soo, Carter, Blackstone, and many others..
Equal parts coffee table book and reference work, the volume presents many one-of-a-kind images, including the world-record setting Houdini Water Torture Cell poster, which sold for $114,000.00 — more than any other magic poster in history..
Clothbound with a stunning full-color dust jacket. Sewn binding, 154 pages. Written by Gabe Fajuri, designed by Stina Henslee, and photographed by David Linsell.

Dear Customer,
Welcome to our new website!! It still looks very much like the old one, but it is far better, with no bugs and keeps us up to date with the ever changing payment security protocols.
Being a brand new website unfortunately means that your old account no longer exists and will have to re-register your details to check out. I apologise for the inconvenience, but I had no way of transferring your account data over.
If you still have a valid gift voucher or if you think you still have some reward points, unfortunately these won’t work on the new site, so please email me at info@propdog.co.uk and I’ll create a coupon code for the value of your points or gift voucher. I still have access to the old site data, so we can always check for you if you are unsure.
I apologise for any inconvenience and thanks for sticking with us!
