Rare collection of items from the magician Oscar Teale, the private secretary to famous magician Harry Houdini. Including a typed contract copy signed by Teale regarding him agreeing to compile and edit Houdini's book A Magician Among the Spirits.

In very good condition with toning and paperclip impressions. Oscar Teale's personal notebook with notes on performances, magic tricks, and musings. Duodecimo, six ring leather binder, with handwritten notes on blue lined paper in pencil and pen.

All in very good to good condition with toning, chipping, a few small closed tears. A typed letter from editor William H. Briggs of Harper & Brothers to Harry Houdini discussing the title of his upcoming book on spiritualism. One page, typed on Harper & Brothers Publishers letterhead, and dated November 17, 1923. The letter entreats Houdini to title his book A Magician Among the Spirits rather than use the original title of Spiritualism Exposed, which may have had negative connotations and offended spiritualistic believers, who they hoped to have buy his book. Instead, Mr. Briggs proposes to Houdini that the title A Magician Among the SpiritsÂboth capitalizes on Houdini's reputation as a magician and would be most advantageous for the sales of his book. Boldly signed by Briggs at the bottom of the letter. In good condition with mail folds, creasing, toning, and a small closed tear to the top left corner. Oscar Teale was a magician, lecturer, and historian of magic whose work bridged performance, scholarship, and the preservation of conjuring as a serious cultural practice. He served as the private secretary to Harry Houdini during the final years of Houdiniâs life, a position that granted him direct access to the magicianâs professional correspondence, research, and anti-spiritualist investigations, and later informed Tealeâs influential role in preserving and interpreting Houdiniâs legacy.…
