Joseffy (Joseph Freud). Four Signed Joseffy Letters. Spanning May – August of 1945, the mechanician and magician writes to fellow performer “Doc” Mahendra (Frank Sterling) regarding a range of topics, including trouble with his health. In one missive, he offers tantalizing details about his interactions with Okito and Fu-Manchu in Mexico, commenting that Okito hopes to move to Boston and “open a magic shop there.” Three TLSs and one ALS, the former on two different Joseffy letterheads. Old folds and wear. All three signed boldly in ink, “Joseffy.” Scarce.
