Voruz de Vaux, New York; Property from a Historic South Carolina Plantation Estimate: $2,000 - $3,000 “Though without fine or regular features, his physiognomy possessed much distinction; while his manners were excellent. It is probable, however, that the latter were acquired rather than innate; for extremely bad taste is betrayed by his frequently wearing on the stage the uniform of a general, decorated with numerous orders. This is an oddity with a fatal suggestion of charlatanism. He was given to vaunting, and was in no wise careful to adhere to the truth in com-mu-nica-tions regarding his magical art.”

He was Colonel of the 7th Fusiliers, which was to become the City of London Regiment.Jean-Joseph Pinetti becamje both famous and rich when he changed the perception of magic by transferinhg it away from the street and created a new form of performance magic. It became popular amongst the upper classes and nobility across Europe. He created both his identity and supported the illusion with his elaborate costuming. The book* that he holds was penned by himself, which, in effect, vaguely described one magic trick. A later book by Pinetti would describe his various new tricks such as “the self-playing organ, artificial snakes and birds, chess-playing automatons, ascending balloons in human shape, perpetual motion, learned animals, automatic flute playing, etc.” His tireless self promotion and theatrics would later inspire magicians like Harry Houdini during the 19th and early 20th centuries. https://live.brunkauctions.com/auctions/ brunk/property-from-a-historic-south-carolinaOffered in the January 10, 2024 Auction plantation-january-10-13870

Frederick the Great, the King of Prussia, was carried about in a much more humble coach pulled by two horses and passed by this spectacle when he saw “his guard salute a man he never saw before. After some inquiry, he was told that it was magician Professor Pinetti. When Frederick the Great saw this he was so angry he ordered Pinetti to leave Berlin within twenty four hours. He said that Berlin was not large enough for two reigning monarchs; the King of Prussia and the King of Conjurers.” 30
