Allen Green: Simple Tricks for Young Magicians

Comments: There are at least two editions of this book. The original Hart Publishing hardcover (plain yellow cover shown above right) with the title page, Simple Tricks for Young Magicians. and the Doubleday Activity Book edition just titled, Simple Tricks.
Some notes for the yellow cover edition state the book had 189 pages, but the table of contents listing I saw only went to page 146, so either I'm missing a page of contents or the other information is wrong.
The "shorter" edition is 127 pages and is the contents listed here.
