Hugard, Jean and Frederick Braue. Two Galley Proofs for Expert Card Technique. Minneapolis: Carl Waring Jones, 1940. One with corrections in pencil, presumably by Braue, including indications of pages to “kill” in the final printed book. Each approximately 450 pages, with some chapters staple-bound at corners. Dog-earing and folds, with tattered pages and general wear. Sold with the original special delivery mailing envelope addressed by Braue to publisher C.W. Jones. Expert Card Technique is widely regarded as one of the most influential works on sleight of hand with playing cards in the modern era.
