PEPPER, J.H. (1821 – 1900). Crystal Palace “Ghost” Program. London, 1863. Folding octavo program for a four-part performance including a presentation of “The Ghost,” “Pepper’s adaptation of the Spectral Illusion, invented by H. Dircks, Esq. … with new and amusing effects.” Chipped, central fold almost detached, sold as-is. Still, a very early and fascinating program for this influential and important stage illusion. SCARCE.
