Title
Thurston, the famous magician; (East Indian rope-trick : world's most famous illusion : first time-out-of-India.)
Description
English: Poster advertising Thurston, the magician's reproduction of the (mythical) East Indian rope-trick. It claims that it's the first time out of India, though the truth value of early twentieth-century theatrical posters isn't always 100%.
Español: Cartel publicitario del famoso mago Howard Thurston y su recreación del (mítico) truco de cuerda de las Indias Orientales. Afirma que es la primera vez que se realiza fuera de la India, aunque la confiabilidad de los carteles teatrales de principios del siglo XX puede ser cuestionable.
Українська: Плакат із рекламою Терстона, відтворення фокусником (міфічного) східно-індійського мотузкового трюку. У ньому стверджується, що це вперше з Індії, хоча правдивість театральних плакатів початку ХХ століття не завжди є 100%.
