RARE PUBLICATION Center Stage Vol 1 Issue 1 *PREOWNED*

This is a vintage ORIGINAL collectible booklet from the 1970s.
Very rare!

Ron Sesvold, an amateur magician and director of management and public affairs for a shopping mall in Michigan, created this magic publication, intending it to be a compilation of magical news tidbits and articles published bi-monthly by his magic group, the Tel Twelve Mystics.
The group was based at the Tel Twelve Mall in Southfield, MI.

As far as we can tell, this may have been the first and only issue for this publication.
Nevertheless, it's pretty interesting reading!
Articles include: Magic After the Fact (how to end your act with a bang), The Dummy Speaks (about ventriloquism), Abbotts Magic (reminiscnces from Recil Bordner himself), Society of American Magicians (background), Analyzing a Trick (how does an effect become funny), What I s Magic (theory), New York Magic (happenings in the city), Before and Behind the Scenes (vintage cartoon), Houdini (interesting story), David's Gossip (magic news tidbits), What's In the News (vintage news tidbits from the past), So You Want To Be a Magician (advice).

Definitely better reading than a cereal box!
