Cat Thank you for checking in on our auctions. Here we will be bringing to market items from pretty much any area of collectibles you could ever hope to find. Some of the rarest, most desirable, collectibles to hit the market will be finding their way out of of the legendary collection of Philip M. & Lenore Levine and into the hands of whoever wants them most. Offbeat-Archives and the Levines have formed a partnership that could not be more suitable to unveil such a widespread collection of artifacts. In time we will be selling items from just about every area of collecting imaginable, all ages of comic books, vintage toys, TV Guides, original artwork, entertainment memorabilia, etc. If you can spell it then odds are you will find it here at some point or another. We will be digging up relics from countless warehouses and collections acquired by the Levines over decades of unparalleled, avid collecting. Some of the collections and warehouses we will be digging into are the E. Nelson Bridwell files, the Classics Illustrated/Gilberton warehouses, the Twin Circle warehouse, the Roman Catholic Catechetical Guild files, one of the Harvey Comics warehouses, part of the Dell Comics warehouse, part of the Warren Magazines warehouse, the memorabilia collection of Joe DeRita - one of the Three Stooges, "Strongman" Joe Bonomo's collection, and the legendary collection of Lenore's TV Guides, among countless others.

As a child Lu became interested in magic, although his father was convinced it was the act of "The Devil"  Lu would order magic tricks through mail, and if his Father didn't burn them when they arrived, his Mother would hide them away for him. After the Army, Lu became known for his new ways to present famous magicians tricks.  Inventions: The Growing Hat (pre-curser to the Bongo Hat), "Cig Ash" Trays - which won a 1954 Academy Award from Genii magazine, a Torn and Restored Newspaper variation, Classical Coin Act, Crazy Deck, Peek-O-Book Test, Diminishing Safety Pin, Blendo-Bills, U Find Your Card and many more. LU BRENT also wrote several books  on the subject, including this  Very Scarce issue of Five Star Card Effects. The first page of this book is a letter "A Word With You" 15 Pages with wonderful written instruction. Lu describes known Magic Effects, by other Magicians, and how (HE) found ways to alter, improve, or just explain another way of doing them. This is quite the "History" book, of how some very well known, and obscure Magic Illusions evolved. It would Behoove ANY Lover Of Magic, to add this amazing scarce book to their Library, Collection! My hope, is it finds a good home, with someone who is truly passionate about MAGIC Please see several Pictures Below Condition: VF Light fading around edge of cover.
