I have come up empty on finding any Jack Pyle material written up. Does anyone know of any references that I could have missed. I've seen him perform on the Magicana website and I liked his style and Have been searching for more from this man.

thank you

Jack performed at Abbott's Get-Together in 1978, I believe, doing close up including his punch deck. He was billed as the Punch Deck Pro for magicians. He was a kind and generous man in my experience, once loaning me his punch deck to perform for Muhammed Ali and I had no idea what was in my hands at the time. A Chicago area magician and had a son that performs magic around Minneapolis, MN under a different name. His performance style was very pleasant and congenial and he certainly commanded my highest respect. I remember him with great fondness.

Jack always participated in the Chicago magic clubs. When I knew him, platinum white hair and a gambler's mustache. Pure class. Pure gentleman.

I don't recall him ever publishing his material.
