ANTIQUE MAGIC AUCTION THIS WEEK ONLY AT: WWW.MARTINKA.COM

 

Source: Martinka & Co.

Martinka & Co. is running their fourth online auction of rare and vintage magic at www.martinka.com. The sale will run from March 18th - 24th. It will include over 100 lots of apparatus and paper. You'll find tricks from Merv Taylor, Richard Himber, Charles Jordan, Owen, Thayer, Okito and others.

A selection of rare magic tokens will include a very scarce one from Thayer of which very few are known to exist.

There is also a good selection of memorabilia including a letter from Adelaide Herrmann, and an impressive program that has Houdini, Kellar and Downs on the same bill.

Original posters from Newmann, Dante, Raymond, Thurston and Kellar will also be available.

Some of the material was found in the storage area of the old Martinka Shop while other pieces were found in a recently discovered magic collection.

There are items in all price ranges and many items will be sold without reserve.  In some cases the reserve has been set to a fraction of the items true value, so there are some bargains to be had!

Even more lots will be added throughout the week, so check in often.

You can view everything and find out how to register by visiting WWW.MARTINKA.COM.  The auction will end on March 24th, 2002.
