This is a rare catalog from Grant's Magic Shop. Printed in 1932, you can tell by checking some of the prices.

One of these was titled, “Grant Presents Super Magical Secrets.” The above catalog was printed by Grant's Magic and sold for {{detail_product_description}}.10
The  tricks described and illustrated had exotic names such as the Hindoo Rope, Mecca, Pearls of Persia, Mystic Rings, and Sambo the Human Hen. These tricks ranged from small table and card tricks to very large items such as apparatus for vanishing people. Variations of many of these tricks have been used by well-known magicians over the years and are still in use today.
