I have very much enjoyed the threads on Mickey Silver. By all accounts, this man is the saviour of coin magic? I have seen his SUV and it is sublimely magical and graceful, and this was just on video. Will Mr. Silver make it to the UK and grant us the opportunity of seeing him live? Looking forward to the DVD Mickey, or the book.

A fan, England.

Magic with coins is just fine. And Mickey gives the field a friendly face and winning attitude. The guy is as gracious as he is giving of his time and attention.

I hope he decides to lecture and travel.

I didn't realize coin magic needed saving?

Who knew?

But Mickey is definitely going to be a force in the coin magic community. I look forward to seeing his material on DVD.

That's funny. I read the words "Mickey" and "Force" in the same sentence, and it really sounded odd to me. I don't associate Mickey with force. I do, however, associate him with slot machines, extremely complex explanations of the inter-workings of the human brain, and with retention of vision vanishes...but in a very friendly and non-forcefull sort of way.

:)

Mike

The words I associate with Mickey are:

Creative, entertaining, perfectionist, and sleight of hand mechanic. But never force. You'll never see him force a coin.

Having a friend like Mickey is having a friend for life. To those that are to young to have seen Sydini or Goshman, can now see the best coin mechanic on the planet.

Vinny,

Where and when can we see this man? Do you know much about his DVD?

Wilso I spoke to Mickey all I can say is very soon his dvd will come out but I cant't give exact date.
Mickey has expanded upon and created many new and fresh coin ideas that has never been in print to my knowledge...
These concepts will be on his dvd.

I look forward to that very much. I keep watching the small clip I have, and it is mesmerising to watch. He is indeed very masterful of the coins. I didn't notice them at first, because I was watching the hands, but his eyes are dangerous. They seem to hold you, and the whole performance is centred around this effect. His performance is subtle, and therefore incredibly natural. Brilliant stuff. I have seen very little of his material, and eagerly look forward to more.

Remeber let us know when his dvd come out, thanks.

I have found a way to duplicate Mickey's vanish, but am not sure if this is how he does it. Is there anyway for me to contact him to find out?

Mickey posts to this BBS, and has a profile online here. Good luck with your coin vanish.

Mickey's coin work will some day be duplicated
however
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER MICKEY SILVER
I contacted the jay Leno show in hopes that mickey could be a guest.
