James Munton..........after all these years, would you mind revealing what your closer is, and has it changed since then? You seem a trifle secretive about this. JR

Are you prepared to gives us names James? JR

Anyhoo....I agree that the same kids' effects are just as well recieved today as they ever were, however great (the die box) or SUCKY (stat-o-sphere) they may be.

Hey Roger, Good to see you are still going strong. Hope all is well!

Magic props never gets out dated, just the deco and painting may need a touch-up.
The props are a part of your tools, it's how you use them to entertain the children that counts. Your carrying case is your tool box. I even use the case to entertain the children.
Some time ago, I had a routine published in Silly Billy's (Turn It Around), it's the old Silk Cabby with 2 silks and a kid to help. Lots of fun and laughter.
Nothing is dated, it's the same old tricks made over. There are always new kids that never seen some of the so called old props.
