DESCRIPTION
Extremely rare and long out of print, Nelson wrote this manuscript to help his customers monetize their mentalism and mental magic skills. It detailed how to profit from virtually every entertainment market of Nelson's day - from mindreading and mental magic work in theaters, hotels and for club and society engagements to reading palms at carnivals and pitching horoscopes at beaches, fairs, and five and dimes. And while many entertainment markets have changed or evolved over the years, Nelson's insights still provide valuable food for thought for the enterprising, promotion-minded mentalist or magician performing mental magic. As a special bonus, Nelson included his standard Alla Rageh (The Man Who Sees Tomorrow) theatrical contract. A fascinating and informative resource. 40 pages, re-typeset.
