"A most opportune book ... [explaining] thirty-five methods. Both the publisher and the author are to be congratulated on giving to magicians such a good thing as this book. One very important feature of the book is a Fifteen Minute Act with Handkerchiefs called 'The Silky Slicker.' Believe I'll use it myself." Dr. A. M. Wilson, The Sphinx magazine)

Revised and expanded version of the 1921 first edition (originally titled "Miscellaneous Handkerchief Tricks"). A new chapter and twenty-seven additional illustrations were added to this edition.
