Hiya,
I'm guessing most of you aren't familiar with the name Ricky Jay but might recognize his face. No matter, but he's probably best known for 'magic tricks' of a different sort. Quite the showman/entertainer!
Saw his one man show in the late 80s being performed in a very intimate venue and it was a kick. Let me just mention another passion of his, which was collecting automatons. Pretty amazing inventions for anyone unfamiliar with those.
Anyway, please get this book containing lots of short subjects (even a dwarf magician) and very amusing reading. I've given some away over the years and have one here also.
