Revision as of 23:19, 4 November 2008

A magic periodical published by Jon Racherbaumer and reprinted in various forms.

• Volume 1 (1-12) September 1971 - August 1972
• Volume 2 (1-8) September 1972 - April 1973 (four issues missing)
• KABBALA hard-cover editions by Danny Korem (including the four missing issues)
• LOST PAGES OF KABBALA
• THE LEGENDARY KABBALA released by Paul Fried
• KABBALA Soft-cover Edition published by Tannen in 1976

When the KABBALA was published as an 8-page magazine, the first volume of 12 issues came out regularly. The second volume stalled at issue #8.

Danny Korem re-issued the original in hard-cover editions and added the missing 4 issues in the second volume. (Subscribers got copies of the second volume to complete their set.)

THE LOST PAGES OF KABBALA was a separate volume, although some consider it a third volume.

A reprint was redone, footnoted, with illustrations by Joseph K. Schmidt, and was released by Paul Fried as THE LEGENDARY KABBALA

Kabbala Vol. 3 was published in 1976 by Tannen in soft-cover. - The original edition, after being printed, was dumped because of controversial sections. It was typeset and another print run was made. The covers of each version are DIFFERENT. There may be 5 surviving copies of the original print run. The others were destroyed. The years? 1975-76. I guess this volume could be considered Vol. 3? THE LOST PAGES is a different book.
