Then in 1906 Harry Houdini together with his brother Theo Hardeen revived this almost forgotten publication under the title of The Conjurer's Monthly Magazine (spelled with an 'e' instead of an 'o').
In 1945 Walter B. Gibson and Julian Proskauer gave this title another shot at life and started The New Conjurors' Magazine, which ran until September 1949, spanning five volumes. The 'New' was later dropped.
This magazine is filled with wonderful tricks and features in the 'Speaking of Pictures' column two full page photos of celebrity magicians each and every issue. The photos alone are a treat and worth the modest asking price for this magazine. The series of De Land marked and gaffed cards is a must read for anyone interested in marked or trick cards.
