I heard that Nick Ruggiero has started a company called "Signature Pieces" and is building props like he used to with Collectors Workshop. Does he have a web site or catalog available?
Thanks |

I searched the Internet and found nothing about it. I have a vague recollection of something being said...somewhere, but I can't remember specifics.
I'd be very interested in keeping track of Nick. I met him several years ago, when he worked for Owen's Magic Supreme. In fact, he built my Zig-Zag and Impalement. A great guy. I've kind of kept track of him, but not as much as I would have liked to. I hope somebody knows what is going on in his life. Steven

I recall Steven's Magic Emporium selling some items from Nick's new line, Signature Pieces. You will not find it on their website so you will need to contact them directly for information. I was receiving brochures from Nick for his new pieces. I will try to find the address and post it here, unless someone beats me to it.
I found the brochure from Nick Ruggiero on his Signature Pieces. The following information was found: Signature Pieces 1520 Verde Valley School Road Sedona, Arizona 86351 520-284-0081; fax, 520-284-0089 |

I have been trying to reach Nick Ruggiero without success. Does anyone know if he is healthy? out of business? on extended vacation? etc.?
Thank you. Gianni |

I talked to Nick last February at the World Magic Seminar in Las Vegas. He was still building "Signature Pieces" and was busy and looked really good. I haven't talked to him since then. You might try talking to Joe at Steven's Magic Emporium or George at Viking Magic. They are probably the two most likely to have recently talked to Nick.

Just saw nick at Collector's two weeks ago and had supper with him. He is still building. A few "standard" items and the rest are custom items. I have brochure in front of me. His phone is (520)284-0081. I do not see a website listed. Address is 1520 Verde Valley School Road, Sedona, AZ 86531. Please do not abuse his phone number.

Nick is a walking wealth of information about magic and some of the personalities of bygone days. He was an assistant on the Blackstone Senior show!

Is he still building?
And is there someone who has a mail contact of him? It's easier to get in contact like that from abroad... Thanks in advance |
