ESCAPE ARTISTS
YOU ARE WANTED !
WE NEED YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS, BIOGRAPHIES AND PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS TO BE INCLUDED IN OUR SECOND VOLUME OF THE NEW EXPANDED ENCYCLOPEDIA OF ESCAPES NOW IN PREPARATION.
Introduce yourself to the world of Escapes and learn what your fellow Artists are up to. Escape Artists are separated by geography and they don't have as many meetings and conventions, like magicians, ventriloquists and jugglers. That is why being shown in this book is a wonderful way to get together. The Information that you give about yourself may serve you well too. It may foster friendships that will help you with your achievements.
PAST ESCAPE ARTISTS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THIS WORK
The history goes back to Houdini, who developed Escapes into an Art. Many Escape Artists have risen to the challenges that he contrived, and in the process they have developed unique and entertaining presentations, some which are now found in the programs of magicians. The Chain Escape, the Substitution Trunk and the Strait Jacket escape are some of the examples. Illusions like The Assistant's Revenge, the Wrist Tie and Through the Eye of a Needle show how the escape theme is being used in magic today..
