One of the best things I've done in my life has been associated with the art of magic! I have met so many wonderful people such as David Copperfield, David Blaine, Le Grand David, Harry Blackstone, Jr., The Amazing Randi, Emil Loew, and countless others. However, there are so many I only knew via the mail or phone such as Honnes Holler, Nikola, Jr. I'm telling you about these individuals as our art is rich in history. With maturity I have realized Houdini may have had the fame but there were and still are so many others that should be recognized in our craft such as those mentioned above. As far as the internet in concerned, I am a pioneer to all of this as I just entered its portholes 5 months ago. I have been able to rescue so many magical treasures which I plan to use in a future book. I have learned about such notable magicians as Horace Goldin, T. Nelson Downs, Sorcar, and many others too. What you need to realize is that some sellers take a long time to send the material you purchase while some do so immediately. I usually send them an autographed photo thanking them in advance or after payment. This kindness on my part is causing a symbiotic relationship between seller and buyer. In addition they in turn have surprised me by sending me interesting magical gifts in the mail too. The feeback or question to the seller allows you to contact the seller if you don't get your items within a reasonable time. ALL sellers want positive feedback! Stay in touch with them and the magic will happen-I know as it has happened many times for me! Good hunting but leave the magic for me.... Warmest Magical Wishes, Benjilini
