2. Broken Wand - General Norman Schwarzkopf
--------------------------------------------
Message by Jamie (The Sandgroper)
OK
! - what's the death of America's General Norman Schwarzkopf
got to do with a magic newsletter?
He
was a brother magician and like all magicians he thinks/thought
just that little different. Was that his secret/s on the battlefield?
None
of the Obits in the media mention it - so thought that I should.
We
had another famous one in World War Two - Jasper Maskelyn,
Credited with all the fake tanks, guns, depots facing France
for "D-Day", and also other large scale camouflages.
There
was another in World War One. Graf Felix von Luckner, alias
the 'feared' "'Seetuefel" (See Devil'). Bring him
up on the net -but don't believe anything he says there. Do
you do the Hindu Shuffle? He was doing it in Queensland as
a mini-teener as the 19th Century closed. Queenslander, Jean
Hugard [et al], saw a band of Hindu 'fakir's doing it, and
then wrote it up in one of his "Card Manipulations".
The young German Count was working his way around Australia
with them. He came to New Zealand and Australia on a Nazi
spy mission in 1938, and did some tricks for the media. Cinesound
Newsreel has him doing the Tearing Telephone Book in half.
Jim
McKeague might like to follow-up these Fakir's of the 1900
to see if they did anything like the alleged 'Indian Rope
Trick'.

3. Broken Wand - Scotty York
--------------------------------------------
Message by Bill Wells (US)
Scotty
York passed away unexpectedly on December 28, 2012 after a
short illness. Scotty was 75. He was a legendary close up
and bar magician in the Washington, D.C. area and the creator
of a number of effects many of which have been featured in
the repertoire of other famous magicians. A memorial service
to celebrate his life will be held on January 26th from 3
to 6 pm at the Old Hickory Golf Club in Woodbridge, Virginia,
USA.

4. Broken Wand - Harry E. Colestock
---------------------------------------------
Message by Ben Robinson (US)
Harry
E. Colestock
(1923 - 2012)
By Ben Robinson
On
December 28, 2012, a Renaissance spirit left Earth after dazzling
its inhabitants much the same way Jacques Cousteau or Leonardo
Da Vinci did. While Harry Colestock did not achieve the legendary
status those icons did with their flying machines and underwater
lungs, Mr. Colestock did something that surely no magician
before has done: he designed a computer that is currently
on the moon. That computer has been there since the Apollo
mission of 1969, when Neil Armstrong uttered the famous words,
"One small step for Man. One giant leap for Mankind."
As of this writing, that computer is still transmitting data
to Earth on solar and thermal patterns, his machines exceeding
expectations by thirty years!
Harry
Colestock's brochures depict his various talents: Magician,
Clown, Santa Claus, and watercolorist. By trade he was an
engineer. But, his visionary spirit and intelligence surely
wrought other more elite titles.
After
running his company Ann Arbor Instruments for many years,
he moved north to Petoskey, MI. After 57 years of marriage
to his wife Marian, she passed. But, not before, on her deathbed
making Harry promise that he would not look away from love.
One year later, he married Marilyn on June 16, 2001.
Harry
was one of the select invitees to the exclusive invitation-only
1987 Oban Event produced at Niagara-on-the-Lake Canada by
the irrepressible Bob Weill. Along with John Booth, Allan
Slaight, Ken Klosterman, David Ben, Stewart James and Sid
Lorraine (among 30 other impressive names) Harry was able
to bring his very refined expertise as a electronics engineer
to the wonders sought, and executed, by star magicians. For
Billy McComb he created the deKolta card shower; and for David
Copperfield a two-way microphone that let the magician communicate
backstage without the audience being aware.
Harry
Colestock was a poet who published a book titled What Really
Matters. His voluminous output of watercolors wrought tears
of joy in the eyes of the lucky owners. Ships sailed on lakes,
baseballs pitchers unloaded fastballs and flowers burst into
bright colors to the viewer. The judges who awarded him honors
at many competitions, throughout the US - where he often took
first place - were impressed he began painting in this medium
well into his 70's. One New York magician made sure Harry
was introduced to master Chinese watercolorist Charles Chu
(who had educated the foremost Chinese scholars and Chinese
calligraphers in the US over the last 50 years). Charles Chu
and Harry Colestock made perfect compatriots given their mutual
love and talent for poetry and an accompanying illustration.
As
a gigging magician Harry performed at school shows, Kiwanis
Club (where he was voted Kiwanian of the Year twice), and
hospital shows with frequency over 60 years! Well into his
80's, he was toting his original magic bag to all sort of
shows, one of the last being at a company party where he was
not only engaged to do magic and make balloon animals, and
Santa, but he also donated the watercolor painting he created
for the company lobby.
His
accomplishments, impressive and many, Harry designed the guidance
computer for the Atlas missile that put astronaut John Glen
into orbit in 1962. While less dramatic, hundreds of school
children received his aid when his tutorial skills for math
or science were sought. He was always willing to lend a hand.
Today, some of those students are now designers of computer
architecture and platforms for companies we all know: Google,
Microsoft and Apple. Harry and Marian lived near Whitmore
Lake in the upper reaches of Michigan. The Superintendent
of Schools wrote, "Harry Colestock is one of the most
unselfish people I have ever met." For the Red Cross,
Harry Colestock personally gave 87 pints of blood, nearly
ten gallons. He wrote that he had been given so much and it
was the responsibility of such fortunate people to give back.
He did what he said and said what he did.
Harry's
last book Industrial Robots was published by McGraw-Hill and
sold thousands in the industrial and educational market the
first week of release in 2004. Harry Colestock was awarded
37 patents throughout his lifetime. Chances are, something
in your home right now, no matter where you live on this planet,
is under the rubric of a Colestock patent. The automaton he
made in replica of the great ventriloquist-comedian-magician
Jay Marshall rests in the forefront of the American Museum
of Magic. Harry was one of the producers of the Michigan Magic
Spectacular, and later ended up being interviewed on stage
by superstar TV magician Paul Daniels. Of that meeting he
was particularly proud, Harry being a huge Daniels fan.
Whether
being Director of Engineering for the Burroughs Corp, or Bendix
Aerospace, or General Electric (where he tested gun controls),
Harry brought his quiet, supremely innovative mind to his
work. One of his sons continues in his tradition being based
at a Los Alamos lab. In line with his father's accomplishments,
his team discovered a breakthrough Quark, which was noted
as a breakthrough in physics. Another son became a colonel
who marshalled troops in the Gulf War, called Desert Storm.
In
1993 Harry returned to New York City, after a 40-year absence.
He had not been in Gotham since he returned from Europe as
an enlisted man after WWII. He had been brought to assist
a magician in designing a one-man show for the largest festival
of street entertainers extant, the 1995 Buskers Festival.
Over 18-months, a script was created out of several hundred
hours discussion and then many letters were exchanged over
18-months. Due to Harry Colestock's guidance, that show went
on to open for the acclaimed singing act Earth, Wind &
Fire, and later enjoyed a 20-week development deal in Seattle.
His gossamer touch was evident in the final production.
We
will never see his kind again. Harry Colestock will be sorely
missed.

Editor:
Samuel Patrick Smith
Reviewed by Paul A. Lelekis
The
Linking Ring has the largest circulation of any magician's
magazine. Members can access TLR at www.magician.org.
The
January issue of TLR is customarily dedicated to the British
Ring #25, the world's largest I.B.M. ring!
Our
cover and inside story features the newest President of Ring
25, Mr. John "Sly" Smith which was written by past
I.B.M. President, Vanni Pulé! Plus Geoffrey Newton
reports on the Annual Convention by the I.B.M.'s British Ring
25 in Great Yarmouth!
In
addition, this month's Hocus Pocus Parade was assembled by
Ian Adair - as he has done for over three decades! He presents
the magical contributions of some of the members of Ring 25!
Year after year, the brethren of the I.B.M. are honored with
the brilliant magic of this group of multi-talented magicians!
I've said it before and I'll say it again - ".these British
magicians have something special going on!" They are
extremely talented and the rest of the magical world is very
fortunate to be able to share their magic! Check This Parade

From
The Editor of TLR, Sammy Smith puts a positive spin on a 100-year-old
tome by Elbert Hubbard. The controversial Mr. Hubbard wrote,
"To escape criticism, do nothing, say nothing, be nothing."
Sammy Smith decided to put a "positive spin" on
this apparently negative castigation with," .do something,
say something, be something!" What a wonderfully positive
outlook for coming New Year!
Celebrating
The Linking Ring is an article by Ring 165, observing the
ninetieth anniversary of TLR with this ring's namesake, William
V. Rauscher and the wonderful assistant to the Great Blackstone,
Adele Friel Rhindress!

Cutting
Up Jackpots by Bev Bergeron is always a treat! Bev presents
an article this month on Professor Pearl Reynolds! This old-world
magician would float in to his shows by parachute after having
cut himself loose from a hot air balloon! Fascinating!
For

with the wonderful contributions of magic, fully explained,
in the following articles:
Mike
Power's Card Corner - All I will say about this month's Corner
is that we are all very lucky to get a contribution by gambling

And Means by Joe M. Turner presents a very cool walk-around
trick called, "Fortune Telling Prediction" by Henry
Holava. This is a very sweet effect!
Peter
Marucci's Showtime presents his very first marketed effect
called "Assault & Battery" which is a clever
effect with a clever "play on words"!
Storytelling
Magic by Ed Solomon provides readers with "Ghosts, Goblins
and Gully Gaggers"! A very colorful story and effect
utilizing the popular, "Ghost Trap" otherwise known
as "Glorpy" or "Hiram the Haunted Hank"!

in Focus has a team of experts who review many new items of
magic so

6. Magic. Mayhem. Mystery. Murder?
--------------------------------------------
Message by Stan Allen, Editor of MAGIC Magazine
Well,
maybe murder. Maybe not. One thing's for sure: somebody's
dead, and the art of magic might have something to do with
it.
The
scene is the Trocadero Vaudevilles theater at the 1893 World's
Fair in Chicago. Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. has hired Harry Robenstein
to perform his magic in a variety show, alongside a number
of other acts. Things get hairy for Harry when another magician
barges onstage and cuts the wire Harry uses to raise his Hindu
Rope in the air. The interloper is the young Erik Weisz. He
exposes Harry's method, claiming that he, Erik, will be the
greatest magician in the world. Robenstein is enraged that
this young man not only exposes his magic, but that Erik wants
his spot in the show! And he gets it, replacing Harry with
his own magic and escape act, and throwing the two magicians
into a battle to make it in the world of showbiz. It's all
part of "Harry the Great," an original theater production
that recently debuted in Colorado, and the whole story is
in the current issue of MAGIC Magazine.
This
month, we also feature a profile of Alana from Germany, a
look back at Houdini's movies, an update on Wayne Houchin,
the shocking reappearance of Bob Markwood, and New Year's
resolutions from 30 name magicians, plus columns by Joshua
Jay, Mark Kornhauser, Ian Rowland, Joanie Spina, Mike Bent,
Payne, Milt Larsen, Cory Haines, and Rick Lax.
On
cover is Danny Cole, who started gaining attention as a teenage
magician from Southern California, but today performs all
over the world. And he has turned his talents toward creating
unique magic effects for Internet viewers. To date, he's released
ten of these short videos - and we've got 'em all on MAGIC
Plus. Danny has also given us an exclusive behind-the-scenes
look at his most recent head-scratcher!
All
this and more is in the January 2013 issue of MAGIC Magazine.

7. Remarkable Magic #285 - Nick Lewin
--------------------------------------------
Message by Nick Lewin (US)
50
years of Magic Castle and Counting. Part One.
January
2nd 2013 is a very special day in Los Angeles and for magic
lovers around the world. There are birthday parties and there
are birthday parties, but when the Magic Castle hits the half-century
mark we really have something to celebrate about. While it
is obviously inaccurate to describe the Castle as the Impossible
Dream---it is only realistic to call it the Improbable Dream.
The
Larsen family dream has become a glorious reality and only
foolish money would bet on it not being around for another
fifty years. Ever since I joined the Castle in 1974 there
have been problems and potential disasters that threatened
its future. Somehow this quirky clubhouse keeps right on ticking
along. Viva La Castle!
I
wonder how many magicians have enjoyed seven-day engagements
at the Castle since its doors first opened? How many cards
have been selected and found? How many visiting guest decided
to dedicate their time and attention to become magicians themselves?
There are many facts and figures that I would love to be able
to quote in this column but I don't think you could even guess
at the answers.
Let
me give a personal testimony. When I arrived in Los Angeles
in January 1974 as a full-time but rookie magician, it was
the Castle that allowed me to become a fully-fledged and self-sufficient
performer. I practiced and began to perfect my craft in its
showrooms. There are two kinds of magicians in the world;
those who have played the Castle and those who want to.
What
a great party we will enjoy on the 2nd of January Founders
Day Party, free booze, free food and a bunch of my favorite
magicians all in one place! There is a cocktail party from
4:30 pm till 6:30 pm and then the Proclamation by the City
and Presentation hosted by our very own Steve Valentine.
The
turnout is anticipated to be large enough to extend these
activities for two more days, with events on the 3rd and 4th
of January. A special booking in the Palace of Mystery features
Milt Larsen and his niece Liberty Larsen all week and an all
too rare Palace booking on January 6th by Goldfinger and Dove.
In fact we will be kicking of an entire years worth of celebrations
at the Castle, and I will be keeping you up to date on the
events as they are announced.
In
perfect timing with the 50th year celebrations is the publishing
of Milt Larsen's new book 'My Magical Journey: The First 30,000
Days.' It is a delightful account of the life of the Castle's
co-founder and resident carpenter/creator. Next week I will
be writing a full-scale review of this delightful book. I
started reading it at 2:00am in morning after Milt gave me
a copy during a Castle visit, and couldn't go to sleep until
I had finished my first reading of it.
If
you think the last paragraph constitutes a spoiler about what
I thought of the book you would be absolutely right! It is
a wonderful read that allows you to explore the life of one
of the most influential men in magic. I have been proud to
know Milt for 39 years and was very pleased to have a book
that connected up so many dots in his extraordinary life.You
can check out my product line, order items and check out cool
videos on my website. I have been receiving rave reviews for
my 'Ultimate Linking Finger Ring Routine' and 'Cruise Magic
101.'

11. Jay Scott Berry - The Terra Maya Tour 2013
--------------------------------------------
Message by Jay Scott Berry
10
countries in 10 weeks, 70 shows in 70 days - At the World's
Premiere Magic Venues.
He is counted among the world's finest master magicians, equally
adept, whether close-up or stage. This is no accident. As
a young man, Jay Scott Berry made a commitment to excellence,
to elegance, to originality and to artistry. For over 30 years,
he has maintained an unwavering focus on those ideals. Along
the way, he has performed thousands of shows, sharing joy
and wonder with millions around the globe. In doing so, he
has left an indelible impression upon the Art and upon his
peers within the Art. He is an inspiration to many fellow
magicians, who credit him with a whole new understanding of
magic and it's potential. Original effects, gimmicks and ideas,
that Jay pioneered, are now being used by magicians the world
over.
"In
my entire career, I have never seen anything as convincing.
It was real magic, delivered with precision timing and consummate
skill." - Mark Wilson, Grandmaster magician
And
so, it comes as no surprise that Berry remains relentless
in his pursuit of sheer excellence; As driven as ever, continuing
to push the frontiers of the Art of Magic. With a style all
his own, it is often said that his presentations are "As
close to real magic as you will ever see." Still, Jay
Scott Berry remains an enigma, as only a wizard should. Characteristically
philosophical, he suggests that, "The Magic is Ancient,
The Wonder is Timeless. We are the custodians of both. We
are the weavers of the fabric of Imagination."
"You've got to see this guy, he's a Great Magician!"
- Donald Trump
And
so it is with genuine excitement that Berry will launch his
2013 world tour on January 21st at Hollywood's famed Magic
Castle. It was within these hallowed halls, many years ago,
that his professional career began as the youngest magician
to ever perform at this most prestigious of venues. This set
a precedent that remains to this day, with Berry having paved
the way for countless other young magicians. The following
year, he was selected to represent the Castle and the United
States at the 1982 FISM World Magic Congress in Lausanne,
Switzerland.
"What a perfect act!" - Milt Larsen, founder of
The Magic Castle
From
this auspicious start, the tour is packed with noteworthy
national and international dates. These include: The California
Magic Theater, The All American Magic Theater, The Redondo
Beach Castle, The South Street Magic Theater, The Magic Jewell
Theater, The Magic Art Centre in Holland and The Magic Circle
in London. Jay will also give a command performance at the
San Diego Marriot for the Spiritual Awakening Conference.
His last appearance for this elite group received no less
than three full standing ovations! As if that weren't enough,
Berry will go on to star at the world's largest annual gathering
of magicians, The Blackpool Convention in England. From there,
he will fly on to Germany, Belgium and Scandinavia where he
will headline the Swedish Magic Championships!
"Jay stands alongside the all-time greats; in the same
league as Slydini" -
Ed Rosenthall
Although
primarily a performance tour, Jay will also present his new
lecture at a few select venues. This is the same presentation
he delivered at last year's FISM World Congress in England,
where he was the only starring act from the entire southern
hemisphere. In this lecture, Jay will perform and teach many
new effects including the mind-bending routine, "A Question
of Destiny", the pure, sleight-of-hand coin routine,
"Foiled Again", "Solo Silk and Rope",
"Spec-ta-cular", The "Zip-it", his brand
new Topit design and more!
"Impeccable magic, absolutely wondrous!" - Channing
Pollock, Grandmaster
magician
Carefully
tailored to appeal to beginner or expert alike, Jay will also
feature many of his signature effects and gimmicks, including
The Eclipse Tip, The Cloaking Device, The Ring and Ribbon
and the FS/2 Gimmick, all with the most recent improvements
and up-to-date methods."A true visionary. A man who has
gone beyond the boundaries. There are only a handful of magicians
who are masters of the art. This man is one of them. Do whatever
you have to do to get to one of his lectures shows!"
- Anthony Brook, International Deputy - The Society of American
Magicians
And
so the road goes every onwards and upwards. Berry is already
booking the 2nd half of the Terra Maya tour, which begins
in June. For more information, please visit:

Unexpectedly
magician Rudy Coby has had to step back from our lineup, but
he
will be replaced by another Superstar of Magic - Christopher
Hart!
Christopher
Hart, is known as "The man with the movie star hand",
and for good reason. His right hand has been seen in numerous
films, commercials, and television specials. Most notably
in the cult horror movie Idol Hands and as the "Thing",
the loveable disembodied hand in three Addams Family films.
In the magic world Mr. Hart has traveled to almost every country
making appearances on television specials, casino showrooms,
European gala shows, and live touring shows.
He
started in the Magic Castle junior program at the age of 16
and quickly moved to working for David Copperfield on the
road. After his youth Mr. Hart became an advisor for Copperfield's
television specials, live shows, and was a key creator for
the Great Wall of China special. His sleight of hand and fast
fingers have earned him the coveted "Silver Lions Head"
award from Las Vegas stars Siegfried and Roy, top prize at
the "Grand Prix Monique" held in Monte Carlo awarded
by Princess Stephanie of Monaco, and is also the recipient
of being honored twice with the Hollywood Magic Castle's 'Stage
Magician of the Year' award.
He
has been the cover story on Magic Magazine, a regular act
for "Masters of Illusion LIVE", Murray Hatfield
and Teresa's' Canadian tour, and now you will see him here
- at Magic At the Beach. Christopher Hart will be closing
the cabaret show and appearing in the Champions of Magic show.

16. Australian Ventriloquist Clifford Guest
--------------------------------------------
Message by Walter Blaney (US)
One
of my best friends in show business over the years was Australian
ventriloquist Clifford Guest. We did many a show together
on bills all over the world. Cliff did some things quite different
from most vents, which set him apart from others.
Our
favorite engagement together was when we got to open for Bob
Hope two nights at the huge Shriner Auditorium in Las Angeles
(which seats 5000, where most Oscar Award Nights occur). It
was a thrill for Cliff and me, both big fans of Bob Hope.
Bob was as nice a man as one would ever hope to meet. We had
a blast backstage, and on stage Bob Hope was the master.
I
hope you enjoy seeing a bit of Clifford Guest's great talent.
Cheers, Walter.

20. 12th Magical Convention of Saint-Vincent! - Italy
--------------------------------------------
Message by Marzia Giacoia (Italy)
Dear
Friends,
The
holidays are upon us and Masters of Magic wants to give its
personal wishes for the best New Year. May 2013 be even stronger,
warm and magical than past years! Survivors of the Mayan prophecy,
we have the great honor to announce that from 11 to 14 April
2013 will be held the 12th edition of the Magical Convention
of Saint-Vincent! We have waited until now to make the announcement
to be sure that the Convention could come back home to the
Grand Hotel Billia, now fully restored and even more beautiful
and welcoming.
As
soon as we have received the assurance, we started organizing
a convention that promises already to be legendary with: Luis
De Matos, Marko Karvo, Luke Jermay, Woody Aaragon, Jason England,
Topas, Paul Wilson and many more artists that you will soon
discover, with a major change from the previous edition:
In
2012, 1,500 delegates have witnessed the quality and excellence
of Masters of Magic in the organization of unique and unforgettable
Magical Conventions: at the end of this path, after having
shown the magic community worldwide we can to create the best
possible FISM, we have been awarded the organization of the
World Championship of Magic to be held in Rimini in 2015.Now
it's time to get back to basics. The Saint-Vincent Convention,
regaining its original location, returns as a personal event,
intimate and with more attention to You, the real protagonist
of the Convention.
To
achieve this, it is essential to make it exclusive. The number
of participants will decrease from 1500 to 599: we have established
a fixed number of places, beyond which we will no longer accept
entries. 599 participants, each one with the best place, the
most efficient services and the attention of the team dedicated
to You. Each one of You special, each one satisfied. The restricted
number of places is synonymous with quality also for magic
dealers: we have, in fact, decided to impose selection rules
for the dealers at Saint-Vincent, so that they can be varied
in regards to the type of items sold and selected according
to a strict anti-counterfeiting protocol.
And
now let's find out in detail the four most exciting magical
days the in the world, with the greatest names in the magical
world and an AMAZING surprise coming!
1
- Luis De Matos, Woody Aragon, Luke Jermay, Jason England,
Topas, Paul Wilson: in the firmament of Saint-Vincent, come
the stars of the magic
world!
2
- The Magic Convention of Saint-Vincent returns to the Grand
Hotel Billia: Back to Home!
