Magical Manuscripts

Post by SimonC » Fri Aug 08, 2014 7:30 am

As part of my ongoing sort-out, I ventured into my bookcase and rediscovered my collection of magic manuscripts, books and pamphlets. they date from 1932 to 1956 but several have no year printed in them and one definitely looks 1920s.
does anyone else collect these? several of mine are from davenports and one has the demon seal inside which is cool.
one thing I love is when they say thing like "have your local tinsmith prepare you a perforated disc of diameter 4inches with two hooks.. etc etc" those were the days.
"just off to the tinsmith love, shall I pick up some milk on the way back?"

Yup I'm off to the tinsmith and then to the Barber for a haircut and good blood letting. Do you want any leeches to go?
