The Magic of Pavel

Description

This is a pre-owned book. No dust jacket. Good clean condition inside and out.

This is the big book of Pavel’s creative magic. A collection of some forty tricks using silks, ropes, cards, bottles and other objects, plus the author’s philosophy regarding the creation of original magic.

Pavel lectured throughout the world, performed at the Magic Castle, at the Ed Sullivan show and countless other venues. Peter Warlock nicely characterizes Pavel’s magic when he writes: “The beauty of Pavel’s magic lies in its simplicity of plot and the simplicity of means to attain the necessary end. In this he has a strong affinity with another of magic’s great inventors, Marconick.”

Edited and foreword by Peter Warlock. Illustrated by Josef Manas.

1st edition 1969, original 139 pages.
