George (Grover George)Triumphant American Tour. George the Supreme Master of Magic. 18 People, Carload of Scenic Effects. Cleveland: The Otis Lithograph Co., ca. 1924 (no. 41641) Color lithograph poster (26 5/8 x 20 3/8 in.; 678 x 512 mm). A few surface abrasions, tears, and minor repairs, rebacked with linen. This poster, like others for George's tour, "promises mysteries gathered from around the world, including the spirit world" (Magic, p. 331). It may be a matter of interest, if not importance, that the letterer of this poster has rendered the term carload as a single compound word, while the almost exactly contemporaneous poster in the preceding lot, which is its textual (though not graphic) twin gives the term as two words. This is one of the least common posters promoting George's Triumphant American Tour.
