Grover C. George (1887 -1958) had to struggle to achieve his title The Supreme Master of Magic. In fact, his rivalry with better-known magus Howard Thurston entailed lawsuits and shady backroom deals with venue owners, causing George to trod the path less traveled through Cuba, Central and South America. Although the tour of America did not reach the triumphant heights advertised, the posters remain first rate work.
