Trials Investigation Sketchbooks

Scrapbook assembled probably by Ellis Stanyon, with additions by Harry Houdini. Newspaper and magazine clippings on parapsychology (particularly the Zancigs' telepathy act), Archdeacon Thomas Colley's libel case against John M. Maskelyne, Houdini in film, magic tricks, and magicians. Attribution to Stanyon made on the basis of notations of sources in ms. Houdini added a ms. annotation on p. 55, and appears to have added some content as well.
