About this seller
Quicker than the Eye is the preeminent online store for rare and out-of-print books and paper ephemera on magic. We specialize in sourcing and selling oddities and antiques on the topics of conjuring, gambling, and circus including posters, prints, programs, finely bound books, and hard-to-find titles. Find Victorian-era decorative cloth hardcovers, vellum, full-calf bindings and more, along with beautiful hand-tinted illustrations and detailed engravings. Our posters range from collectible window cards to rare lithographs depicting the shows of legendary magicians, historical and modern. We also stock curious vintage photography and autographs as we continue to add to our inventory. Looking for something specific? Just ask! Our expansive inventory is not entirely viewable online, so we may have what you are looking for even if you don't see it listed here. We are also happy to provide more photographs and detailed condition reports on each item in our store, please don't hesitate to ask!
