Illustrations depicting various cutting-edge stage illusions at the beginning of the 20th century. The first shows the race of a motor-car again a train; also shown, a ship pursuing a small boat before she blows up and sinks; and finally a Wright aeroplane comes to the rescue of a woman on a roof-top. All scenarios are shown from the front (what the audience sees) and behind (where the magic happens).
