Rauscher the Magician

It is my extreme pleasure to count among my dearest friends, Bill Rauscher, who is not only a talented magician, but is also a prolific writer and magic historian of the first order. I have known Bill for years and have watched in admiration as he has turned out wonderful books on subjects like Bill Neff, Silent Mora, The Great Raymond, Servais LeRoy, Houdini and many, many others.



Of course, he had his own scaling card and a nice one it is. The front shows Bill in the classic pose in his tuxedo with the words "Good Luck." The reverse is filled with magic imagery including a vingette photo of Bill in his full dress tuxedo and cape pulling the proverbial rabbit out of a hat. I needn't introduce Bill to the magic community, especially among collectors and historians, but for those who don't know him, here is his scaling card and additional imagery including his bookmark for those interested collectors. All the best my friend.
