Tony Sarg was a mid-century author, puppeteer, toy-maker, and good guy in general who seems to have devoted his life to amusing kids. Tony Sarg’s Magic Movie Book features page after page of familiar stories and poems, each with illustrations in blue and red that are activated with a pair of “magic glasses” which change color at the flip of a tab. Two pairs of glasses are included in this first edition in VG+ condition with a bit of exterior wear. The front cover is neatly stamped “Withdrawn from the Boulder Public Library",” but I doubt that this was ever in circulation.
