Shari Lewis & Abraham B. Hurwitz's 1975 book, Magic for Non-Magicians! Instant Magic: Professionals' Favorite Tricks Without Store-bought Equipment of Sleight of Hand. This is a compendium of easy tricks you can do with household stuff, things found in your pocket or purse—party tricks, basically! Abraham B. Hurwitz was the official magician of the City of New York, and Shari Lewis' father. Shari Lewis was, of course, a Peabody-award winning puppeteer and performer, best known for Lamb Chop's Play-Along. This copy is signed by Shari Lewis. I bought this at the estate sale of a friend of hers. The inscription is signed SHARI TARCHER, her married name. The book is in very good condition; yellowing pages but no tears or markings. The dust jacket is in good condition, it has some tears at the spine. See photos.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Curious Finds Books, South Pasadena, California, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
