RIchard Ross---Jumbo Cards

Postby Jack Shalom » January 24th, 2016, 11:24 pm

I was looking at some YouTube videos of Richard Ross's amazing card manipulation--with jumbo cards. Were there other performers who worked with jumbo cards as manip objects before Ross--or for that matter after him?

Here are two...

Takemitsu Uchida:

The jumbo card manipulations start at 2:50. And later in the routine he does super jumbo cards, which is fun to watch.

And Mahka Tendo here:

The jumbo card manipulations start at the 4:50 mark.

I always wondered if Mahka Tendo was the first to do split fans with jumbo cards?

Dr. Zina Bennett of Detroit was noted for his manipulation of jumbo cards. Dariel Fitzkee wrote a book on the subject in 1929.

Are you talking about Suzy Wandas Bennett or Edna G. Bennett?
