Description
1872 MAGIC Antonio Blitz Fifty Years Salem Witch Trial Magicians Conjuring



Antonio Blitz was one of the best magicians of the 19th century. He worked mainly in Europe and the United States focusing on magic, trained birds’ antics, and ventriloquism. Early in his career he did the dangerous bullet catch with his teeth but stopped it considering it to be too dangerous. He even performed in a Fourth of July parade in front of Abraham Lincoln making his son laugh by pulling an egg out of his mouth. Blitz was buried in New York in the same cemetery as Houdini.



This 1872 edition of ‘Fifty Years in the Magic Circle’ is a biography of Blitz’ life walking through his early childhood to his adventures through, Ireland, Scotland, Nova Scotia, Cuba, and America interacting with Salem Witch trials, witches, magicians, fortune tellers, ventriloquists, sailors, sea voyages, and much more! Wonderfully illustrated with in-text black and white drawings throughout!
