Okay, it's my 50th post, so I thought a thank you would be fitting. I know that everyone and their brother owns Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic. I now have what I consider a special copy. My wife purchased a copy of the course for me from Powell's Books in Portland. It's a 1974/75 spiral bound copy. Brown leatherette binding and everything. In excellent condition, even has an order form in the inside cover. Anyway, I wanted to know the history and so e-mailed Mark through his website. Less than 24 hours later I had a response from Nani with the information that I asked for. It's great to know that even those that are huge names in the business have time to answer questions from us "little guys."
Thanks a bunch Stephen

That sounds like a great volume your wife found. Congratulations! Mark Wilson is definitely one of the Greats. Keep your eyes opened and you’ll see a few “big names” posting here at the Café. Welcome to the party! Don

Yep, Nani Wilson is a class act. It a great credit to the world of magic that these big names take the time to help out people just getting started in the world of magic.
Do you live in Portland? If so, do you know about the Portland Society of Magicians? I can PM you the info if you are interested. |

Mark and Nani are two of the nicest folks you could ever meet. If you ever get a chance to get to the Magic Castle or to one of Mark's lectures don't miss it. Mark and Nani are at the Castle a lot teaching magic to beginners. In addition don't miss out on Mark's Magic University, a video course on your computer available through Hocus Pocus Magic shop on the net.

Coincidentally, I'll be meeting Mark tonight at the Magic Castle. I've been taking classes there from Dave Thurson, and Mark will be coming to tonight's class to tell us about what he'll be covering in his upcoming 'Magic 3' course. Looking forward to it!
Check out my new book on our 'perceptual superpowers': www.LawrenceRosenblum.com . It discusses new research on the psychology of misdirection and the neuroplasticity behind expert motor skills.

Scaevola, I was born and raised in Portland, but currently live in Walla Walla, WA.
Id, that must be the lecture Nani told me Mark was preparing for. Have fun!

Both Mark and Nani are GREAT folks. But even by REALLY nice standards Nani Wilson shines. Without question one of the classiest ladies in magic. Best,
Brad Burt
