Happy Easter everyone! I very rarely repost items on this site. However, how could I resist doing it for today’s post? In 1985, the Walt Disney World Easter Parade featured Doug as its official “Grand Magical Marshal!” It’s a great moment in time for Doug as he’s about two years away from officially retiring. Also,…

The Walt Disney World Easter Parade with Doug: Revisited
A couple years back I featured Doug’s Easter, 1985 appearance on the Walt Disney World Easter Parade. Doug’s segments are stretched out throughout the show, and at the time I just featured the parade as it aired unedited. Well, cut to today being Easter, and I thought it was high time I fixed that, and…
Vegetarian Times Cover Story-Feb. 1985
Happy New Year Everyone! I hope your holiday season went spectacularly, and we’re all rested and ready for what 2022 has in store. Here’s hoping for good things as the website enters its fifth year! The above cover is one I sadly don’t have the article for. The magazine itself was up for auction last…
1985 Fox Theater St. Louis Dancing Handkerchief Photo
There’s a lot to love in this photo of Doug and Debbie performing the always fun “Dancing Handkerchief” routine.

A dancing handkerchief, or a picture, really does speak a thousand words! Special…
“Canadian Conspiracy” Documentary
Today is the site’s 600th post, and let’s have a laugh shall we to celebrate? I recently stumbled upon this little seen mockumentary from 1985, and had to put it up. The show originally aired on HBO, and almost makes you believe something is afoot with our neighbors to the North. It is only a…
Dollar Bill Illusion with Maury Povich-1985
The above appearance by Doug begins at 4:30 and, while it is quick, is pure Doug nonetheless. However, to give you a fair warning, I suspect that this clip of Doug was highly edited for this particular You Tube Channel. Now, if only all of us could do this with a $1 bill.
1985 All-Stars of Magic Charity Event Photo
The 1985 picture is certainly one of the more famous pictures in terms of magic all-stars. Organized by Lance Burton and Fielding West, this one night only event featured a who’s who of magic to raise money for hunger in Africa. No one can argue that this photo certainly captured a rare moment in time that…
