NICOLA (William Nicol, 1880 – 1946). Large Archive of Nicola Ephemera and Photos. 1910s – 60s. Approximately 70 items, including theatre and souvenir programs, a SIGNED RPPC for Nicola, handbills and broadsides (from Bombay and other locations in India), an INSCRIBED AND SIGNED bust portrait of Nicola, newspaper clippings, magazines, a straw mask from the Nicola show with a letter of provenance tracing its ownership and a small cache of TLSs from Nicola's brother, Charles (who performed as “Von Arx") to fellow magician Johnny Jones. A very good collection of material from the career of this famous globe-trotting illusionist and his brother.
