Lovers of nostalgia will delight in this facsimile of a 1913 book featuring more than 50 hand shadows. Quaint illustrations depict many different types of shadows, from animals to historic figures and fictional characters. In addition to descriptions of specific hand positioning, the text includes instructions on lighting and projection.
In addition to publishing books on magic and hand shadows, Louis Nikola (1878-1936) performed in Great Britain and Australia during the World War I era.
