A German popular-science compendium on natural magic, conjuring tricks, and alchemy by Johann Samuel Halle, printed in Vienna by Johann Thomas von Trattner in 1785 for lay readers curious about useful and amusing experiments. The scanned pages yield letterpress ornament rather than plates: a woodcut headpiece band of scrolling acanthus, daisy-like blooms and a footed vase, plus plain numeral columns from an index.
