STERANKO early rarities STERANKO

Posting a few  items from Jim Steranko's career as a card magician and escape artist...  These are the earliest published works by Steranko.

:takeit: takes it.  No probies, listers, losers, hobos or malcontents.

This is a copy of the super rare STERANKO ON CARDS, first 1st edition 1960 printing.

Entire 102 page book was designed, written and illustrated by Steranko when he was only 22 years old. Includes Steranko photo on cover. This book is legendary among card magicians and very sought after.

This book is in fine to very fine condition. Pages are very nice. It was printed with a clear plastic front and back cover and a plastic comb binding.  Clear plastic cover and black plastic binding are both intact.  Clear plastic cover has toning, as usual, but pages are white and beautiful.

REDUCED!  $95 $82 postpaid to U.S.

In 1962, Steranko published STACKED DECK (as part of Genii magazine), a 20 page book of revolutionary card magic that was written, designed, illustrated and photographed by him.

 

In 1964, he upped the ante with STERANKO'S WORLD OF ESCAPES (part of Genii Magazine). 47 pages written, designed, photographed and illustrated by Steranko. Yes, it's true that Steranko influenced Kirby to create Mister Miracle.

 

These books are super rare, needless to say. Highly sought after by hardcore Steranko collectors.  I'm going to sell these books as a pair:

 

1962 issue: Fine+ condition, flat and glossy with beautiful pages.  Has small spine splits at top and bottom.

 

1964 issue: Fine+ condition, flat and glossy with beautiful pages.  Has small abrasion at top of front page.

 

REDUCED!  $250  $219 for both books postpaid to U.S.
