Don Maclean in Canada recently bought a number of our magazines on CDs and unprompted by us and totally gratuitously wrote:
To be honest, I had been a little bit dubious about the possible quality of the scanned material, envisaging fall off at the inner edges of pages where the mag had been folded to fit the scanner. Not so. It is obvious that the publications were completely 'dissected' and the resultant scans are superb. These CDs provide an incomparable resource of magic 'ephemera' spanning a hundred years. Martin, and latterly Chris, are to be commended.

Chicanery Magazine CD
Chicanery is a worthy successor to
Spell-Binder and most of the effects within its pages are by Stephen. He
gave himself pen names and a typical Tucker touch is that the names are
Pen Tell and Mark Erpen and so on.
If you loved Spell-Binder
then you will love this!

Magic Mag, Digital CD
(Derek Lever)
Here on this one disc is the entire
Derek Lever Magic Mag. The magazine started in October 1979 and the final
issue was published in August 1983. When Derek Lever launched Magic Mag he
felt that the entire magic scene had become stagnant and uninteresting and
once the magazine was launched he was not afraid of having a dig at anyone
and everyone.

Slydini Encores
CD
Here is a 157-page Slydini book on
CD Rom. The book is out of print and not all that easy to find
and Houdini Picture Corporation has put it on CD Rom at a reasonable
price. Everything in the book is here including over 200 photographs
to help guide any magician through each effect. I think the
photographs could have been better scanned but apart from that this CD Rom
is useful and valuable to all Slydini enthusiasts. |

Stanyon's Magic
CD
Stanyon's original lessons in magic
were published in each issue and formed a significant course of magical
instruction. Magic featured close-up effects, routines, stage and parlour
magic including some of the great classic effects and each issue contained
much of interest to magic enthusiasts. Stanyon delighted in reviewing
other performer's acts and provided his own explanations for the methods
used for the tricks he saw. This upset several professional performers but
delighted his readers.
