Adrian Smith, then current Dean of the Society of American Magicians. At the time, Harold as he was known to his friends, had the largest magic library in the world. Often Harold was a dinner guest at our house and as usual after our meal “the boys” would discuss magic and collecting. Harold’s plan for his books and ephemera was to donate it all to his alma mater, Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. As we all know that’s what happened to his collection. Ed on the other hand disagreed with Harold’s plan and said that when the time came for him to dissolve his library he wanted everything to be sold; so that other collectors could enjoy what he had amassed.

  • Max-Malini-By-David-Ben-Courtesy
    BY DAVID BEN LE C CIR C HE MAGI T COURTESY OF COURTESY 44 GENII Malini. Max Malini. For many of us, particularly those of my generation who were introduced to Malini through the pages of the Stars of Magic and the works of Dai Vernon, the name Malini conjur- ers up the image of a bold, brash, itinerant magician—the last of the mountebanks—who performed parlor magic and close-up magic par excellence. With an abundance of audacity, broken-English, and a guttural voice with an Eastern-European accent, Malini toured the world, performing for the rich and famous. Even more intriguing, Malini had few confidants and what we know of him, and his work, is primar- ily from the previously mentioned works, par- ticularly those associated with Vernon and, in more recent years, from Charlie Miller and his protégé, John Thompson. OCTOBER 2012 45 MY OWN INTEREST AND UNDERSTANDING of Malini, however, took a seismic shift when I embarked on the journey that is Dai Vernon: A Biography. Vernon, of course, acknowledged Malini as being of the utmost influence. Malini was the “M” in the “J.K.L. and M,” the four per- formers—Jarrow, Keane, Leipzig, and Malini—who had a profound effect on Vernon’s development and his understanding of what constituted magic—ele- gant sleight-of-hand performed naturally but with lasting impact. As I sourced material for the Vernon biography I came a sizeable file on Malini and his magic. Hopefully, one across thousands of letters by and about Vernon, his influ- day, someone will write a book about Malini.

  • Welcome to the New Messe Essen
    ISSUE 2. 2017 www.messe-essen.de WELCOME TO THE NEW MESSE ESSEN GREEN YOUR DAY »A STRONG SIGNAL« Before IPM Essen: a portrait of Essen’s Mayor Thomas Kufen and Messe Essen trend scout Romeo Sommers CEO Oliver P. Kuhrt discuss a modernisation milestone »ART IS NOT A LUXURY« A dialogue between the three artistic directors of “Theater und Philharmonie Essen” EDITORIAL | 3 Dear Reader, A warm welcome to the new Messe Essen! Eighteen months after the start of remodelling work, the face of Messe Essen has already been fundamentally altered with the completion of the first construction phase. The new glass foyer exemplifies the values embodied by the new Messe Essen: modernity, open-mindedness and creativity. At the same time, Messe Essen is send- ing out “a strong signal”, as Essen’s Mayor Thomas Kufen emphasised in the interview starting on page 8. I am particularly pleased about how thrilled our long-standing partners are about Oliver P. Kuhrt this modernisation milestone. Until the completion of the final measures in November 2019, we will be implementing many ideas to make your visit to Messe Essen as successful and enjoyable as possible. In this issue of ESSEN AFFAIRS, we will show you how exhib- itors and visitors can benefit from the new Messe Essen. Beyond that, we have once again met some exciting personalities for you. For example, the Dutch green stylist Romeo Sommers talks about his work as a trend scout in the green industry (page 24). Albert Ritter, President of the German Showmen’s Association (DSB), takes us behind the scenes of a funfair (page 28), and the three artistic directors of Essen’s theatres and philharmonic orchestras explain why art is anything but a luxury (page 34).

The Cub Scout Magic Book, No. 33210 is a great resource for age-appropriate tricks and puzzles. Visit a magic shop or have a magician come to your den or pack meeting to teach the Scout a few tricks of the trade. Prepare to watch in wonder at the pack meeting as your Cub Scouts entertain their audience with skits, stunts and sparklers that they have practiced at den meetings. The Cubmaster uses the magic of ceremonies to present advancements. Magic makes for a mystifying theme for a pack meeting or blue and gold banquet. Magic makes a great theme for pack meetings or banquets. • Pack Meetings: The pack meeting brings all the dens in the pack together for the purposes of recognizing the achievements of the Cub Scouts, communicating information about upcoming events, and providing a program that enriches the Cub Scouting experience.
