Houdini's paper magic; the whole art of performing with paper, including paper tearing, paper folding and paper puzzles
Houdini's Paper Magic is a 1922 New York book by the magician Harry Houdini, published by E.P. Dutton, teaching adults and hobbyists paper tearing, folding and puzzle tricks. Its pictures are plain line diagrams of folds and cuts with lettered corner points, plus a bold black-and-white woodcut-style portrait of a woman in a wide-brimmed hat, showing how stark figure-ground contrast and clean geometric construction can be borrowed for graphic work.
