Over the coming days, I will be reprinting Magic Magazine’s 40th Anniversary “Magic Show” issue. The issue itself is from May 2014, and is one of the largest retrospectives ever done before or since on the show.

It features a lot of write-ups by friends of the website John Harrison and David Charvet, and covers the genesis of the show all the way to the 1981 filmed version. I hope you enjoy it!
