Wow! There are magicians who made exposure in 1927?

I can't believe it

And magic still ain't dead?

There was no internet in 1927 so it wasn't a big deal. Now magic ain't dead but it is in the hospital. Coincidentally I was looking at Pathe news about a minute ago so you are exhibiting psychic powers. I was actually looking at this video of June Merlin who was married to Billy Mc'Comb at one time. She is performing at the Stork Room. I actually performed there myself. The audience didn't look quite as respectable as those in this video though. It seemed to be made up of gangsters! They actually asked me to help them cheat at cards. I declined for two reasons. I didn't know how to cheat at cards anyway and secondly I wished to live!

Magic cannot die, simply because people are not born knowing magical secrets and there are always quite a lot of people that don't know quite a lot of magical secrets...

Magic only die for certain people that are explained certain effects at a certain time by a certain "exposer."

Magic will always be a very living mystery...
