We are proud to display some of the Center's holdings in our virtual gallery. Old manuscripts, rare magic materials, and antique playing cards are just a few of the objects that may be displayed.


Grippo as a boy

Jimmy Grippo's life by Richard Hatch.

Our current exhibition is loaded with wonderful new details of this grand master of card magic. Be sure not to miss our flash presentation of over 30 photos of Grippo. Many of which have never been published before.

Bromo

Who Was This Magician?

This Houdini-era photo by the famed New York photographer Vanderzee has been around the magic scene for some time. Here at Conjuring Arts it has been a mystery as to the identity of this vaudevillian.

When the Conjuring Arts acquired a file of miscellaneous letters we found that this unnamed escape artist seems to be none other than the Great Bromo.

Please take a closer look at Bromo's letter and over 90 other interesting letters from our collection.
