WALTON, ROY

The Devil's Playthings. A Collection of Card Tricks

London: L. Davenport & Co, [1969]. First Edition. Original saddle-stapled wrappers. With illustrations (after the author). From the library of Paul Daniels. Staples somewhat rusty with a little staining to adjacent paper. A few small stains on covers. Slight wear & slight soiling to spine, covers & corners. ; Roy Walton was a profoundly influential magician and card expert, born in 1932 in Dundee, Scotland. His lifelong fascination with magic began at the age of nine. By his twenties, Walton had become a pivotal figure in the British magic scene, known for his inventive card tricks and as a master of close-up magic. He operated the famous Tam Shepherds Trick Shop in Glasgow, which became a hub for magicians of all levels seeking advice and new tricks. Walton’s contributions to card magic are monumental, with over 700 original tricks to his name, including the iconic "Card Warp." His work has deeply influenced the techniques and performances of card magicians worldwide, leaving a lasting legacy in the magic community. This book was once part of the esteemed collection of Paul Daniels, a legendary figure in the world of magic. Daniels, an iconic British magician, curated a collection renowned for its historical and artistic significance. The inclusion of Walton's work in his library reflects Daniels' respect for Walton's innovative contributions to magic. This connection not only highlights the value of Walton's work but also Daniels' commitment to preserving the rich traditions and evolutionary strides of magical arts. ; 22.6 x 15.2 cms; 62 pages.
