Hey Everyone! My apologies for the unexpected two- week break. Life, a new baby, and work got the better of things…as they can do. But, I’m rested, relaxed, and ready to give you the best in all things Henning. For starters, Brian Lumley recently provided me with this truly great candid photo. Taken during rehearsals…

“Rockin Houston” Photo Archive-1977 TM Benefit
When I first began this website, I came across a page called “Rockin Houston” which profiles years and years worth of concerts and events that had come to the Houston, TX area. At the time, I profiled individual Doug photos for my site, but really didn’t take a moment to soak in what “Rockin Houston”…
Six Doug Performance Photos on Ebay
The above auction is currently happening on Ebay, and is pretty good if you ask me. It’s not always common that Doug performance photos come up for sale, and these ones in particular are a lot of fun. As the seller says, the dates and location of the photos are unknown. But, at 16 bids…

7 Front Row Doug Performance Photos on EBay

But, every now and then you come across some unique nuggets that make it worth your while. Case in point, these seven performance photos that…
Doug and Dai Vernon at the 1978 S.A.M Convention
Sorry for the lack of posts this week. But, due to some work related projects many balls have been in the air this week. However, I wanted to get something quick off to everyone, and this picture of Doug and Dai Vernon at the 1978 S.A.M. New York convention does the trick! I’ve only seen cropped,…

Haversat and Ewing Auction: Doug and Mars Autographed Portrait
Here’s one more fascinating item up for auction in this weekend’s Haversat & Ewing. Personally, while I have seen images from this photo shoot before this particular image is new to me. Its surreal nature fits well within this earlier time in Doug’s career. The signature itself reads: Hank, Vera, Kim Buddy & David. Thanks…
Do You Have An Autograph From Doug?
The above signed photo was sent to me by Kevin Segall, and got me thinking. Doug signed a lot of autographs in his lifetime, some extravagant and flashy, and others not. Now I know a lot are still out there in private collections. If readers want to send me theirs, I’ll be sure to spotlight the…

“World of Magic III” Unseen Photos: Part Four
1977 was a good year for wasn’t it? Besides being the year of my birth, it featured Doug’s walking through a wall illusion. Done in a blink and you’ll miss it fashion, this illusion still has the ability to grab us 42 years later. How did he do it? Well, that my friends is magic. …

“World of Magic II” Unseen Photos: Part Three
As I wrap up the photos from 1976’s “World of Magic,” it’s interesting to note that it has been brought to my attention that some of these may be from the on-air and live versions. While I wasn’t sure at the time, the first two from the metal ring illusion below seem to prove it. The…
