Sibyllans Hemligheter, Sven Linde (Stockholm : Fröleen, [1925])

The title of this Swedish magic book translates as "Sibyl's Secrets: Practical Prophecy and Magical Art Book". The cover makes striking use of just three colours printed on white cloth with occult symbols and imagery alongside typical elements of performance magic such as cards held in a fan and a die. Such occult elements were often used by magicians, lending their performances an extra air of mystery and the supernatural. The contents of the book itself reflects the themes of the cover, with sections on card and apparatus magic, scientific experiments, photography, graphology, palmistry and prognostication.
