An old Japanese textbook on display at Meijimura, which was far more interesting than I thought it would be.

These new minifigures are even greater than I thought! All except for James and Griphook have alternative faces, which I show here. Dumbledor's skirt has aprinted pattern on back. New Griffyndor Sword is great with these Trans-Red rubies. Fawkes is a cutie!!! :D Luna can change hat and hair, and her and Lily's expressions is great. There is a pattern printed on a side of a slope in Nevill's textbook.
This old beach house still has surprises after all these years! I learned that yesterday, when I resumed my winter project of cataloguing the original owners' [1] small library by the fireplace.
To make room on the shelves for the books I have already catalogued, I was removing volumes I haven't looked at yet and stacking them on the table.
That was when I found myself holding a book that was larger and heavier than the rest of its vintage companions. It was neither fiction nor scripture nor natural history, the three main topics in the library that came with the house when my father-in-law bought it in the early 1940s.
It was an 8th grade geography textbook dated 1914, and it had belonged to the Seeley's only child, Taylor Woodward Seeley (1906-1995).
The first thing I do after dusting off a book is look for inscriptions. I am hoping to find "West Dunes" in Mayannah Woodward Seeley's now-familiar hand, and I often do. This time I did not.
Instead, I encountered nine full pages of Tyler's drawings on the flyleaves and inside covers. It was almost like stumbling into a cave with stone-age paintings on the walls. Who was the last person to see Tyler's art? That I do not know, but I do know that I want others to enjoy them too. Without further ado, here they are.
This flyleaf is a full-page playbill/poster advertising Tyler’s imagined magic performance. It’s laid out like an announcement sheet: oversized headline lettering at the top, supporting text blocks, and a staged “act” image below. This is the finished version of the sketched poster on the preceding page.
The dominant title reads “Seeley in his new and startling feat of magic”—big, theatrical lettering meant to be seen at a glance. The language is pure show-business: “new,” “startling,” “feat,” and “magic,” with the price (“$5”) included to complete the handbill feel (and to signal the parody of real ticketing).
Beneath the headline is a vertical list of “magic vocabulary” (words like legerdemain, misdirection, conjuring, illusionism, etc.). This works like a brag-sheet—Tyler’s way of giving the act prestige through fancy terms.
At the bottom of the page, Tyler depicts himself performing a formal parlour magic act, dressed in a cutaway (morning) jacket that marks him as a serious, respectable presenter rather than a clown or trickster.
Standing behind a table, he uses a wand to direct the audience’s attention toward a glass vessel and an upturned top hat, from which small oval objects—likely eggs—appear or are produced. Flanking vessels emit vapor, giving the scene a controlled air of mystery while suggesting a demonstration rather than occult magic.
The setting, costume, and props place the performance firmly in the world of polite, daytime domestic entertainment, presenting Tyler as a magician-lecturer exercising authority, restraint, and command of attention.

The covers of these old kid's science books are always so illustrative. Not just because they're illustrated. Look at that bug— you know what you're goinna see under the lens. These were good to have when you were young, truth being stranger than fiction and all.
