Hardcover. Condición: VG Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: No Dust Jacket. Revised Edition. Octavo, [23cm/9.25inches], full gilt-embossed crepuscular blue cloth sans dust jacket, pp. xvi, 407. Illustrated with pen & ink Sketches &tc. Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. . Publishers T. Grant Cooke and Walter A. Jordan developed an interest in producing a correspondence course in magic in the mid-1920s. A few months before his death, Harry Houdini was approached to author the course; Houdini declined but recommended Tarbell. Cook and Jordan hired Tarbell and Walter Baker, another Chicago-area magician, to work on the project, but Baker dropped out of the project in its early stages to concentrate on his performances. The publishers allotted Tarbell $50,000 for the course, which he finished in 1928, producing 60 correspondence lessons with at least 3,100 illustrations. Tarbell later discussed the philosophy behind his course: "There is a big difference between a magician and a man who does tricks.Fundamentally, the making of a magician is no different than the making of other professional people. One must be trained in the mechanics, the alternate methods and be skilled in the presentation in order to meet any conditions which may arise." Unlike other magic courses which placed a greater emphasis on self-working illusions, Tarbell began with fundamental drills and practice sessions involving body position, movement, and sleight-of-hand techniques which were to be incorporated into actual tricks in future lessons. After selling 10,000 complete courses, Cooke and Jordan discontinued marketing the Tarbell Course in Magic in 1931, blaming the Great Depression for slumping sales. In 1941, however, magician Louis Tannen purchased the rights to the course, working with Tarbell and Ralph W. Read (of Read and Covert) to convert the correspondence lessons into book form.

Sin especificar. Condición: Nuevo. El doctor Tarbell fue un genio para crear, resolver y presentar misterios. Las cosas que consideras imposibles de lograr, el doctor Tarbell las conseguía. Hizo del misterio un arte, pero también una ciencia. Intrigaba tanto a magos como a profanos. A temprana edad, el doctor Tarbell se percató del extraño poder que lo misterioso ejerce sobre el hombre, y de cómo conforma su destino. Comprobó que las leyendas viven cuando los hechos mueren, y que demasiado a menudo la ilusión se parece más a la verdad que la propia verdad.

Hizo del misterio un arte, pero también una ciencia. Intrigaba tanto a magos como a profanos. A temprana edad, el doctor Tarbell se percató del extraño poder que lo misterioso ejerce sobre el hombre, y de cómo conforma su destino. Comprobó que las leyendas viven cuando los hechos mueren, y que demasiado a menudo la ilusión se parece más a la verdad que la propia verdad. Así que se puso a estudiar toda la magia que encontró por el mundo, la que practicaban los hechiceros en las selvas, los prestidigitadores "Culi-Guli" de Egipto, los magos de Oriente y de Occidente, los sacerdotes de los templos paganos, y también estudió los "Misterios de la Verdad" desarrollados por los grandes "Maqi", los sabios de las "Hermandades Secretas". Basándose en su inusual conocimiento sobre esas materias, elaboró números que causaron verdadera sensación en los escenarios americanos. La pericia del doctor Tarbell para crear misterios, su agradable personalidad, su particular sentido del humor y su facilidad de palabra, le otorgaron una categoría aparte. Cualquier tipo de público disfrutaba con el doctor Tarbell. Fue un entretenedor sin rival.
