In 1906, Houdini launched his own magazine and published it for two years. Our two-volume set carefully reproduces every issue of this scarce publication. Houdini filled the pages with his collection of rare magic artifacts including photos, broadsides, and clippings, as well as his editorials, research articles, and monthly escape-technique revelations.

The magazine also featured news columns from correspondents around the world like Ottokar Fischer and Houdini’s hard-working brother Hardeen, and the original versions of Houdini’s vendetta-fueled but fascinating research on Robert-Houdin.

Conjurers’ Monthly Magazine is essential reading for every magic historian and Houdini fan, and our reprint has been printed on top-quality satin-finish paper for optimum reproduction of Houdini’s cavalcade of rare images and vintage typography.

Our facsimile set carefully reproduces vols. 1 and 2 (1906-8). Like our other reprints, we haven’t re-typeset the text, so you can see the actual original pages.
