Young Joseph Dunninger

Incredible photo of a very young Joseph Dunninger (April 28, 1892 – March 9, 1975), probably at age 16 when he first secured a contract to perform at The Eden Musee. He sits in a heavy carved wooden chair, holding a magic wand. On verso: Unusual ASTRO stamp box and Printed "WALTER MITCHELL STUDIOS, 28 & 4 East 14th Street, New York City"
