2. End Of An Era - Magic New Zealand E-zine
---------------------------------------------
Message by Paul Romhany
Editor Vanish Magic Magazine

It is hard to believe Magic New Zealand ezine has been going for 25 years and MagicNZ even longer. It has become a weekly source of news and magic information for thousands of magicians around the world connecting us all together through the work of Alan Watson.

I was around in New Zealand when Magic NZ started and without the support of Alan and Michele I wouldn't be where I am today, and Vanish magazine wouldn't be where it is.
MagicNZ helped advance magic in New Zealand more than any other organization, bringing in the best performers and lecturers in the world and sharing and helping countless young magicians. Over 30 years ago they hosted Marvyn and Carol Roy, a lecture that was to change my life.

Thank you Alan for your devotion and encouragement to magic both in New Zealand and world wide. Now MagicNZ is coming to a close I'll be forced to read Vanish Magic Magazine.

3. Latest FISM Update

Message by Joan Caesar (Canda)

The Best Magical Christmas or Hanukkah Present of 2024!

When you think about the perfect present for your partner, think of giving a once in a lifetime
gift of magic: registration to FISM 2025, and while you're at it, don't forget about yourself.
Torino is a wonderful place to explore during FISM, and afterwards think of a trip through Italy
and surrounding countries. Imagine visiting Venice, the only large city without cars but with
plenty of history. Rome, Florence, so many cities to experience.

For the family magician registered at FISM there will be:
29 hours of competition
33 workshops
120+ dealers
72 lectures
2 Grand Gala shows
4 one-man shows
2 close-up shows
3 parties: spaghetti, beer and the mega party.

More artists are joining the legendary lineup, and each week, Masters of Magic reveals new, exclusive details in their newsletter that I am excited to share with you.

Here is the lineup so far: Mac King, Peter Marvey, Chris Ramsay, Shin Lim, Luis De Matos, Dani DaOrtiz, Vanni De Luca, Joshua Jay, Richard Wiseman, Marco Zoppi, and many more!

This holiday season, give a gift that brings magic to life! Registration is open now - make this Christmas or Hanukkah truly unforgettable!

For hotel accommodations, FISM has secured special rates for attendees at nearby hotels, offering comfort and convenience just steps from the event. Visit the official website, www.fismitaly2025.com, to view recommended hotels and book your stay in advance to secure the best rates for an immersive experience in Turin!

4. Sky Sets Steven Frayne Christmas Special
-------------------------------------
Article forwarded on by Peter Phillips (UK)

World Screen

Steven Frayne, the magician formerly known as Dynamo, is set to return in an upcoming Sky original Christmas special.

Miracles (w.t.), co-produced by Seventeen 17 and Expectation, is set to air this Christmas on Sky Max and streaming service NOW. At the end of the 90-minute special, Frayne will take the ultimate risk, pushing himself to the limit for a death-defying finale.

Phil Edgar-Jones, executive director of unscripted originals at Sky, said: "Spending time with Steven Frayne is a truly magical experience, so get ready for a rollercoaster of emotions as he unlocks the magic in all of us this Christmas."

TRICS Magic Convention Reports on the Magic Word Podcast

As we wind down to the last New Zealand e-zine, so we are completing our last of the year convention reports. We have reported on more than a half dozen magic conventions over 2024 and we expect to attend and report on more next year. But this weekend we are in Charlotte, North Carolina, for TRICS, hosted by Scott Robinson. This year's Guest of Honor is Paul Gertner. Other performers/lecturers include Shoot Ogawa, Bernardo Sedlacek, Ed Ellis, Rocco, and a host of other outstanding performers both seasoned and new. This intimate close-up convention always promises some unique, great magic, and they always deliver.

There will be two separate reports from this convention beginning Friday night after we have had time to record and process Thursday night's activities and all-day Friday events. So, no podcast will be posted until late Friday night (Eastern Time) on November 8th. But when it is posted, along with photos, convention schedules, and more, then you can listen online here: https://www.themagicwordpodcast.com/scottwellsmagic/868-trics-2024-days-one-and-two Of course, you can always listen wherever you get your podcasts.

And as we close out the successful years of Alan Watson's dedication to excellence, I want to again add my congratulations and humble appreciation for him publishing these podcast updates. And, may I also make one last financial appeal for your help to support The Magic Word Podcast. Your donations and monthly/annual pledges help keep the podcast going by offsetting our many expenses for domain hosting, hardware and software, convention expenses, podletter publication, and much, much more. There is a DONATE button on the top of each page of the website at https://themagicwordpodcast.com which you can click to easily make your financial commitment. Thank you in advance for your support, and thank you again, Alan Watson, for your tireless efforts.

Congratulations from Mark Wilson's Family

Alan, your contributions to the international family of magic have been unlike any other reporting on our beloved art.

My parents, Mark Wilson and Nani Darnell Wilson, and myself, Greg Wilson have the highest respect for your hard work.

Ending The Magic New Zealand emails is a loss to our community, however, you have had a commendable and glorious run.

8. MagicAuction.com The legacy Continues…

Message Greg Wilson (US)

Celebrating 25 years of success... MagicAuction.com is about to be upgraded with a new website!

Joe and Chris Tripi created a worldwide network for magicians to buy and sell their magic, and now Greg Wilson, son of Mark and Nani Wilson, will continue to serve the magic community with this groundbreaking site.

New features include live interactive bidding, text and email bidding updates, proxy bidding, watchlists to monitor magic you are interested in, upload your own listings to the site, a "wanted" section for things you are looking for, blogs and forums, and many more features. It's all very exciting.

We hope to see you at MagicAuction.com. Please sign up for our newsletter, because we can't reach you through Magic New Zealand anymore.

We, Greg and Clem, wish you, Alan, "Happy Magic" on your next adventure!

9. No Stone Unturned - Paul Stone - Article 176
-------------------------------------
Message by Paul Stone (US)

This first week of November 2024 will be long remembered by millions of people around the world for a certain event that took place in USA, and which coincided sadly with the final edition of Magic New Zealand after 25 years of bringing the latest magic news to thousands of magicians across the globe.

In my last couple of articles, I have written about a few of the magicians and magical friends that have impacted my own career but, in doing so, I have now realised that it would take several more editions of Magic New Zealand to come even close to mentioning everyone who deserves to be singled out.

So, I'll have to settle on doing so in my forthcoming book 'NO STONE UNTURNED' which I have started working on, and which will be launched at the Blackpool Magicians Club Convention in February 2026.

There are 50 years of photographs and stories to recount of so many wonderful performers, that it is a massive undertaking, but I'm determined not to miss anyone out. And, as a bonus, there will be links to priceless, never before seen, video footage of some of the truly great magicians that I have had the privilege of working with or producing in my shows.

In the last couple of weeks I have spent a few hours going through photos and show fliers and I am now more excited than ever about this project. It has certainly brought back some wonderful memories.

Whilst I wasn't intending to name any individuals in this final article, there are two people whom it would be remiss of me not to mention, as they have both played a significant part in my 'magic' life.

The first is John Fisher. I first met John more than fifty years ago at Ken Brooke's Wardour Street Studio in London's West End, and we immediately became firm friends. John's influence on the world of magic is well documented, as both Producer of the Paul Daniels TV Shows, and also the outstanding 'Best of Magic' TV Series, which in my opinion stands out as the top magic TV series ever produced.

John is a consummate author and has written several fabulous books featuring iconic stars from the world of entertainment. These include 'Heroes of Magic' which pays tribute to many of the greatest magicians of our time, and is a 'must read'.

The other person is more than likely someone that most magicians would not have heard of. His name was Bill Thompson. I first met Bill when he was the manager of a toy shop called 'Hobbies' in Liverpool City Centre. He subsequently moved to Blackpool, and opened a small magic & joke shop on the promenade on Blackpool's 'Golden Mile'. Then a few years later Bill opened a magic studio named the 'House of Secrets'.

The 'House of Secrets' could in no way be described as a fancy place, it was located on the second floor of an old building in an unfashionable part of Blackpool - come to think of it, there is no fashionable part of Blackpool!

But what Bill's studio lacked in surroundings was made up for in spades by his warmth, kindness and the sheer magical knowledge that he openly shared with dozens of pros, aspiring magicians, and hobbyists alike.

Bill was a brilliant artist and designer and he helped me on numerous corporate events with everything from logos to entire set designs. And he wouldn't ever take any payment for his time and significant talent. He was a true and loyal friend, and together with the many other people he helped and supported, I miss him greatly.

Prior to my meeting Bill, he had been the manager of a small but well known magic & joke shop called the 'Wizard's Den' in Moorfields, also located on the outskirts of Liverpool's City Centre.

I mention this in closing because it was in the 'Wizard's Den' that, as a 13 year old, the then manager showed me a copy of 'Abracadabra', the world's only weekly magic magazine, and specifically an advert for 'Ken Brooke's Magic Place' in London's West End. That was the start of my magical journey, which I am still on to this day!

The last words must, of course, go to Alan Watson who, with his lovely wife Michele, has masterminded and expertly produced Magic New Zealand for so many years. Huge Congratulations Alan, on this amazing achievement, and one which I am proud to have been involved with for the past three years.

Now put your feet up, and have a well-earned rest!

Message by Wittus Witt (Germany)

Magic New Zealand - The Last One!

Dear Alan, dear readers,

As this journey comes to an end, I want to thank you, Alan, and all of you, dear readers, for the time I was able to spend with you here.

Alan, I admire you for your dedication, your love for the art of magic, and your perseverance. These newsletters have been both - current information and fascinating insights into our craft. I truly appreciate that our contact information is not "sold" but that the newsletters are archived in Ask Alexander for future reference.

What more can I say, except a heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to this unique service. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

And finally, here's the latest update from my Bellachini Museum. Last week, we participated in the big "See for Free" museum day. A total of 47 museums, including the Bellachini Museum, took part in this event. From 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., all museums offered free admission. In Hamburg, around 77,000 visitors took advantage of this opportunity, with the Bellachini Museum welcoming approximately 800 visitors. This brings our total number of visitors to around 4,000 since the museum's opening two years ago.

I look forward to welcoming you soon!

Stay healthy, everyone.

Warmest regards from the beautiful city of Hamburg,

Wittus Witt

11. Tales From The Fantastic Magic Center - #108
--------------------------------------------
Message by Kent Cummins (US)

"Disappearing!"

Disappearing is, in my opinion, the most difficult of all magic effects. I made a list of all the stage illusions that I have performed over my 75 years in magic, and there were 15 appearances, 7 torture tricks, 6 transposition/transformations, 6 levitations, and 2 escapes.

But there were zero disappearances! Not even one.

On stage I have magically produce myself, my assistants, the Master of Ceremonies, corporate executives, doves, rabbits, dogs, cats, a hamster, the Frankenstein monster, the Wizard of Oz, the Easter Bunny, a Gorilla, Santa Claus. But I never made anything big disappear.

To be fair, David Copperfield has become rich and famous because he has made things disappear: a Learjet aircraft, the Orient Express train dining car…even the Statue of Liberty. But I'm not David Copperfield.

Blackstone, Jr made an elephant appear primarily through misdirection. By the time it appeared, the audience couldn't think of where it might have been hiding.

Why is it harder to make something (such as an elephant) disappear? Because at the instant it vanishes, the audience knows to look for where it might be hiding.

George Schindler teaches a wonderful magic class all about making things disappear. He shows samples of magic props that could make things vanish, and claims that everything that disappeared wound up in Hoboken, New Jersey!

But the Magic New Zealand E-zine archives will not be going to Hoboken. Alan says that they will become part of the wonderful data base of "Ask Alexander."

If you have enjoyed reading my column here, I think you will also enjoy my podcast, "Tales from the Fantastic Magic Center."

And now, this column will disappear.

POOF!

The Fantastic Magic Center is dedicated to preserving and sharing the art of magic. But I can't do it without your help. My Patreon account is the same place as my free weekly podcast:

12. Yes We Caan! - John Carey #251
-------------------------------------------
Message by John Carey (UK)

The card at any number plot is extremely popular among magicians in recent times. There are many versions in print. Some are very good, while others seem way too convoluted, in my honest opinion. The version we will discuss here is simple, practical and strong. Did I mention it's also nearly self working too?

Ask one member of the group you are working for to think of a number, not too small, but not too big. Say between ten and twenty, but make it high and difficult. This is a devious ruse of Dani DaOrtiz to steer your spectator towards a high number in the range.

Suggest that you get a few of the group involved with shuffling the deck. Push off a group of five cards from the top of the deck and drop them in front of a spectator. Repeat this twice more, dropping two more groups of five cards on top of the tabled cards. Finally drop three more cards on top of all. Do this casually and of course silently. Eighteen cards are on the table. Make two further packets of cards in front of two other people, casually dropping cards down in front of them like before, the quantity not being important though.

Ask the three people to shuffle their packets and to then table them. Then have spectator three drop their packet on top of spectator two's. Then direct attention to your first helper and almost as an afterthought ask them to take a peek at the face/bottom card of their packet and to put the thought of that card into their mind. Request they drop their packet on top of the other tabled cards and square up. Pick up the deck and execute a casual Jay Ose false cut. Maybe even have a spectator do the cut on themselves - a Jim Swain idea.

Direct attention to the person thinking of a number and ask them to reveal it? If they say eighteen, you are of course golden. Seventeen too is good. Simply count down and reveal the mental selection at the thought of number or show the next card as the selection. However let's deal with other numbers. We will use a delightful ruse/ swindle I saw Lewis Jones use to displace cards sleightlessly. Let's say the number thought of is fifteen. That means we need to displace the top three cards. Simply push off the top three cards and flip them face-up.

Take them into the right hand in a spread condition and ask if the selection is near the top? Once they confirm it isn't flip the rest of the deck face-up and push off a couple of cards from the face, asking this time if it's near the bottom. Place the right hand's three cards casually onto the face of the deck and turn it face-down. Do the above nonchalantly and it flies.

If nineteen is called I like to show the top card, flip the deck face-up and spread off a few of the face cards, secretly Hofzinser culling any random card to the rear/top of the deck. Turn the deck face-down and table it. All that's left is to deal and count down to the thought of number and reveal the selection with style!

Notes:
A very big thank you to my friend J.K Hartman for the great suggestion of having the selection made in a hands off fashion. Originally I assembled the shuffled packets together with a break under eighteen cards and did a dribble force. Jerry's suggestion is far stronger.

13. Adventures Of Romany!
--------------------------------------------
Message by Romany

Dear everyone!

I wanted to finally jump in to say hello and goodbye for now!

You may remember that I wrote a column during covid but stopped because although many of you loved hearing about my adventures locked up in the Buddhist center - getting caught baking bread in someone else's kitchen (covid rules) and other misdemeanours - I was not doing any magic so I had nothing much to say!

I am so glad to say I am back performing on cruise ships, conventions, and wherever anyone hires me! Phew! www.romanymagic.com

And for all of you who enjoyed my memoir Spun Into Gold - The Secret Life of a Female Magician (available on Amazon worldwide, hint-hint!), I have wonderful news of the strange but delightful meeting of magic worlds. Wittus Witt, the acclaimed German magician who writes the Bellachini Museum column here, read my book and magically translated and published it recently as 'Zu Gold gesponnen - Das geheimnisvolle Leben einer Zauberkunstlerin.' He has made it into a beautiful edition with photos and everything!

Last week I went over to Hamburg to finally meet Wittus, see his exhibition 'Magic in the hands of Women' and do a show. Lots of fun! And then! I went to visit my German juggler
ex-husband, (the one I left to go to Las Vegas to study magic!) and spent time with his
street-performing family, including doing a show in their community theatre. After a break, Martin read from my book in German and we got a huge applause for managing to stay 'family' after all this time! It truly was a magical turning of the circle of life!

It is time for me to say goodbye until we meet again!

Wishing Alan and his family and all of you, much happiness and fun with magic!

PS: You never know how life if going to turn out and if you need a reminder of that, ooh I have just the book for you! And available now in German!
