When this book was published Don Lawton (1922-1988) was one of the most popular magicians in the world, and one of the cleverest for dreaming up whimsical routines and ideas. Any trick is improved with a Don Lawton treatment. Don won the “Stage Magician of the Year” (1970) Award, (Academy Magical Arts & Sciences.) Here he presents 160 pages of ideas, routines, presentations, patter lines, and excellent magical instruction, covering some 160 and more magic tricks. Many are standard, on your own magic shelf. Bring them back to life and use, spark them up with Lawton ideas. Some of the ideas are from magic friends of Lawton’s, some are right out of Lawton’s own act, lecture and repertoire.
