In Dustin's review of the 2015 LA Conference on Magic History, he recounts Bill Becker's discovery and unveiling of a previously unknown photographic portrait of Alexander Herrmann taken by Mathew Brady. The description and illustration of the portrait in the magazine do not do it justice -- in person, the print (a poster-sized 24 x 32") is stunning, and it was one of the highlights of the display room.
Becker mentioned at the conference that he would be releasing a limited edition print of the photograph, and the announcement is here.
