Re: Bill Miesel Has Died
Bill was a gentleman and a true scholar. We had a great deal in common, besides card magic. The both of us served in US Army Intelligence.

Re: Bruce Cervon Video Notes
As to Bruce's Linking Finger Ring routine, there are plans to release this separately in a strictly limited edition. The complete set will include a set of the signet rings in 14kt.

Re: Bruce Cervon Video Notes
Cervon never put his best stuff in print, so the possibility is there that a very good book could be made of his better material. He also wasn't a particularly good writer, so having a good writer work from videos of his material is a better result than if Cervon had written the book himself. The b...

Arnaud, E-mail Gabe Fajuri at Potter & Potter Auctions. He has sold a couple sets of these. One from the LJ collection and one from the Vernon/Cervon collection. I have no idea what these are currently selling for. If you have a set, my advice is to hold onto and treasure it...... JP

Jonathan, Yes, as noted in an earlier post, the change of the face up card beneath the coin was accomplished by employing the Marlo "Rise, Rise, Rise" cop as found in R.C.T. I'm relatively certain that, although using Marlo's cop, the face up change was not Marlo's idea. The question remai...
