First published in 1961, Jerry Andrus' "MIser's Miracle" was a break-through coin routine.  Largely creating his own methods in isolation, Andrus put together a very visual and stunning production of coins from between two pieces of playing card.   With each coin produced, the card is torn again, smaller and smaller, until the last coin seems to visually appear between two tiny pieces of card.
I recall seeing Andrus perform this at Earthquake Magoon's Magic Cellar in San Francisco in the late 1970's, and when that final coin appeared, it was one of those moments in my personal magic history that I will never forget.
This is the 2nd printing, which Andrus printed in the mid-1970's (with the original edition date of 1961 retained).
This booklet is in in absolutely pristine condition, coming from new-old dealer inventory.
It has a pencilled price in the upper corner of the title page, and a dealer's sticker label (Jeff Busby Enterprises) in the inside back cover lower corner.   Otherwise the book is absolutely MINT

this is from new-old dealer inventory.   Appears as new, even though it is over 40 years old.
