My guest on this episode is Jeff Maysh, author of the Kindle single “Handsome Devil”, a book that documents the life and death of one of the most talented and charming con artists of the 20th century, Victor Lustig. He was a master of disguise, an escape artist, and the creator of epic swindles in the 1920s and 30s, including “selling” the Eiffel Tower and managing one of the most prolific counterfeiting operations in American history.
