Description:

This poster is a reproduction of an end of the 19th century/early 20th Century poster which depicts the performance of a very famous Maskelyne and Cooke illusion at the Egyptian Hall, London, England.

As can be seen the poster features the wording "Egyptian Hall - England's home of mystery - The Mahatmas outdone - The most original & startling mystery ever presented to the public"

The poster is a high quality reproduction using professional, high-end equipment for digital printing which results in a print with colours that have a glossy finish and appearance.

The poster will reflect the condition of the original and in places that may mean odd marks and shadows, etc. The original item features some age related marks, flecks and scratches that the passage of time inflicts upon very sensitive and NON-technologically advanced materials. This does not make our reproduction any the less rare and sought after though, nor poor quality- it is merely to state that what minor mark or blemish is present upon the original, because it is an exact facsimile, will be present upon THIS reproduction.

However, the image has been colour corrected, adjusted and treated and the overall quality is of an exceptional standard...you will NOT be displeased or disappointed.

Packaged in a non-crushable and non-collapsible poster tube, the poster is sure to reach you [wherever you are] in the same condition as when we sent it.

NB: The attached image is LESSENED in quality for speedy loading and to deter image theft.
