I have just placed on ebay a new copy of the Miracle Factory's limited edition of Essential Robert-Houdin, signed by Todd Karr and Jim Steinmeyer. The item number is 234165296294 and the title is "Essential Robert Houdin Miracle Factory's Limited Edition". This is copy #10 of an edition of 12. The opening bid is half the original Miracle Factory's price. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to let me know.

It is beautiful. And if memory serves, the endpapers are unique in each of the editions; which is to say that no two are alike.

Re: Limited Ed of Essential Robert-Houdin on ebay
Since the original listing of the limited edition of Essential Robert-Houdin did not sell on ebay, I've re-listed it, this time with a starting bid $100 lower. You can find it here:

Re: Limited Ed of Essential Robert-Houdin on ebay
Richard,
I'm assuming that it is OK for me to give this away. If not, I trust that Dustin will obliterate it!
The table has four legs on the bottom. By pulling/pushing one of the back legs, a small hook goes up and down from the table's top. The hand is hooked onto this and is weighted such that when the hook comes up, the hand goes down. Conversely, pulling the hook down via the table leg causes the hand to rise.
I'm not a great writer so if this isn't clear let me know and I'll try an alternate way of explaining it.
