An Original Vintage Linenbacked Magic Show Poster (measures 20" x 28" [51 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

Marvelo the Magician, the circa 1920s magic show poster ("See 'Marvelo' the magician!"; "Tons of elaborate and new equipment. Magic, Mystery and Slight-of-Hand Illusions which have left thousands spellbound [Jay L. Green Company]") advertising a magic show and featuring art of a smiling magician pulling a rabbit out of his hat while surrounded by animals, imps, devils, and more. If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has no text in the top blank area. We previously auctioned another example of it that had information for Marvelo the Magician and his performances overprinted in that area. It is definitely possible that this poster was created for Marvelo the Magician, but it is also quite possible that it is just a "stock" magic poster that magicians could buy and have overprinted with their information, and it could be that this is what Marvelo did, so the image may not be related to him. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It had some faint smudges in the right of the top border. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
