We are delighted to announce that Volumes VII and VIII of The Rich Cabinet Collection are now being packed and shipped!
The incredible feat of completing an annotated collection, which were written over four decades by Dr. Eddie Dawes, now comes to a conclusion with the seventh and eighth volume of The Rich Cabinet Collection. Yes, one volume remains—the index—and that will ship later in the fall, and it also holds a surprise or two!
In the latest books, Volumes VII and VIII, Dr. Dawes continues to illuminate with his gentle but probing prose, as he seeks out facts to record the truth. The resulting articles follow individuals—sometimes with their partners, sometimes with their families—and their complicated and colourful careers in the conjuring arts. We are also treated to a rare, self-reflecting point of view in Dr. Dawes’s final two articles, as he concludes the Rich Cabinet series by commenting on what magic history and collecting meant to him for seven decades.
This has indeed been quite a rich cabinet of magical curiosities. And now, we can’t wait for these books to join your collection.
For those who have already purchased this magical set, packages are now being prepared for shipping. We are thrilled you will have these new volumes to enjoy for summer reading.
