Bob Read Passes

Postby Bill Palmer » November 20th, 2005, 5:15 pm

I just got a message through Alan Watson, forwarded from Todd Karr, that Bob Read, the incredible comedy magician and cups and balls expert died today of a heart attack.

Meeting Bob and getting to talk to him about the cups and balls was one of the highlights of the Magic Circle Centenary for me.
