Does anyone know if Ken and Roberta Griffin’s family still do entertainment? Contact information?

Small but important correction:
Ken and Roberta GriffiN.
I know, because I have their book about the illusion show.
Much luck with you search!

Oops GRIFFIN

I don't have any contact information but have recently been going through a lot of there old press stuff and family photos. They certainly did not have the easiest life. I know the oldest boy was killed in Vietnam. Bert has been dead probably 20 years now.
Still a lot of good information in the book.

"Illusion show know how" is a fantastic book. It might be a little outdated now but still has great advice if your planning on doing illusions. I still go back to it every once in awhile.

Richard, I am looking for info on the "rag" picture act that Roberta did.

Zakari: You need to contact David Charvet. He has performed the "rag picture" act that Roberta had performed. He is a member on here or you could google him for website and contact info.

Thanks for the info

"Illusion Show Know How" should be mandatory reading for every aspiring illusionist and be read many times before buying any illusion. It is a wealth of real-world information.

Here's a newspaper clipping I came across about the Griffin's from 1960 -
