5 out of 5 I’m not sure if there is any other single person who has done more for Magic Collecting and the preservation of Magic History than the wonderful and humble Dr. Robert Albo. During a span of 38 years from 1973 – 2012 he produced 16 oversized volumes filled with photos, videos, descriptions, …
5 out of 5 Here is another overlooked classic effect created by George Robinson at Viking Mfg. It might seem similar to other Okito Box type effects, but it is quite unique in effect and method. In essence the QuartOkito Coin Box is a Boston Box designed to hole a single quarter. But there is …
The first version of this remarkable illusion was invented by Okito c. 1904 (Dr Albo Vol 1, pg 103). Among others, variations have also been built by Thayer, National Magic Company, Henry Bohlen and Town House Magic (Deluxe Visible Block Penetration c. 1946), Richard Gerlitz, Mel Babcock, Magic Wagon, Mikame Craft, and Nielsen Magic. It …
Although Okito almost certainly didn’t invent this type of production tube he did feature it in his act and Michael based his beautiful version on Okito’s versions featured in Dr. Albo’s books: The Oriental Magic of The Bambergs and The Ultimate Okito. It makes for a wonderful production device because it can be used anytime …
5 out of 5 Finally, I have a set of Okito-Nielsen Chinese Sticks not just the Millward-Nielsen ones that were built by George Millward and decorated by Norm Nielsen that are featured here. From the outside it is difficult to tell them apart – the Okito-Nielsen ones are a little bit darker, have yellow not …
5 out of 5 This is how “they” get you! I’ve been purchasing a few of Carl Williams pieces recently and just when you think you are above all of the addictions of classic magic effects, you realize you’re right back where you started and can’t stop yourself. This is another stunning beauty meticulously re-created …
5 out of 5 It’s always a joy to pick-up release from the MagicCrafter himself: Brian Cook, and even better when it is a rare sold-out release like this beauty. What a wonderful idea to embed a real Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollar into the the lid of this unique Okito box, and there are …
5 out of 5 Another rare beauty from Carl Williams in his Okito-Williams style. Here Carl takes on the legendary Delben Blotter with great success and produces the prettiest magic blotter you will find! The Delben Blotter is in no way a new effect however the Okito style it has been given is unique. This …
5 out of 5 The original version of this effect was invented by the genius Robert Harbin c.1946 as Dippy Magnet. The Dutch Micro Magic master, Eddy Taytelbaum, created a stunning version which earned him third place at the 1961 FISM Close-Up/Card Competition. This beautiful version was built by Carl Williams in the Okito-Williams style, …
One of my favorite glass penetrations is the Glass (Quadruple) Penetration that was invented by Peter Warlock in 1937. It is sometimes known as the English Glass Penetration and there have been a number of versions created, even as recently as 2008 when Magic Wagon created their Mod Quad Penetration. It is a wonderful illusion …
