Chances are at one point in your childhood, you became somewhat interested in Magic, especially tricks that you could perform yourself.
This magic section from the 1975 Franco American Catalog, one of the bigger novelty distributors shows that you weren’t alone, their rack toy like selection of magic tricks might be familiar if you ever desired to pull a rabbit out of hat.
A few of my favourites:
Wow! You hit a good note with me today! I’ve been a professional magician for 22 years, and co-own a magic shop (www.blackbirdmagic.com). And, tricks like these are what got me started as a kid.
Franco is still in business, BTW..
